An expose on how Wal-Mart's attorneys navigate the thicket of international contracts to create their planet wide commodity chain and the ensuing misery for over a million workers would be a real world mockery of what is left of neoclassical theories of the firm. I know Liza Featherstone is working on a story of the corp.
Liza's book - which is going to be published by Basic in the fall - focuses mainly on the intense sex discrimination Wal-Mart practices, though the book is full of quotes from Wal-Martians that show how incredibly backward the class consciousness of U.S. workers is.
