Lloyd Warner's The Corporation in the Emergent American Society presents a groundbreaking sociological examination of the American corporation as a living social institution, not merely an economic engine. Warner chronicles how corporations have grown to dominate the fabric of American life, reshaping communities, redefining class structures, and reconfiguring the very identity of the modern citizen within a rapidly evolving democratic society.\n\nDrawing on his distinguished academic career at Michigan State University and New York University, Warner argues with characteristic precision that the corporation is a mirror of American values — its hierarchies, rituals, and power structures reflecting the broader tensions of a nation in perpetual transformation. His analysis is both sweeping and intimate, weaving together sociology, economics, and cultural anthropology to illustrate how institutional power is negotiated at every level of society. For anyone seeking to understand the true architecture of American life, this work remains an essential and provocative inquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203178766555,"sku":"2026200014855-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/71a4632c-87a8-40f0-89ec-88ef4e44a93c.png?v=1788144895","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014855-secondhand-the-corporation-in-the-emergent-american-society","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
