The ultimate expression of power is the ability to act beyond the confines of law, with contemporary society enabling elite groups to wield "panoramic power". From the murderous crimes of the corporate giants that provide us with life's luxuries and necessities to the data gathering activities of media and educational institutions, the authors offer new thinking on damaging structures of power and privilege.

This accessible book provides a comprehensive understanding of elite corporate wrongdoing, and the late capitalist society that enables harm, considering both how we got into this mess and how we get out of it.
