Corporatization is weakening activism and empowering big business

Not just about the money: corporatization is weakening activism and empowering big business
The corporatization of activist groups, including Greenpeace, is the focus of a new op-ed co-authored by Liu Institute Director, Peter Dauvergne, and former Postdoctoral Fellow, Genevieve LeBaron.
“Corporatized activism is shoring up big business, sustaining capitalist states, and building support for a lightly-reformed status-quo. It threatens no one in power,” wrote Dauvergne and LeBaron. “But it weakens grassroots activism and poses a major threat to those who are struggling to transform the world.” Read the op-ed here, and more on their book here.
