The 1st part of this epic 3 hour film begins with the history, nature, impact and possible future of the 'corporation'. It explains how 150 years ago corporations were insignificant institutions ruled by tight government controls, but nowadays they seem to have replaced the church, monarchy and ruling political parties as the most dominant institutions of our time. But they are also the most destructive. And in the past century and a half we have passed laws that allow a corporation to be treated as a person. Part 1, 'The Pathology Of Commerce', examines what kind of a person the corporation is, resulting in a diagnosis of psychosis, according to the World Health Organisation's standards.
