Lecture #5
Today:
- Best performance gets best grade, worst performance gets worst grade. (Ranked grading scheme)
3. Professions: a) Whistle-blower fund: defray lost wages, legal costs b) Whistle-blower hot-lines. Professional Engineers of Ontario (P.E.O.) gets 12-25 calls a month. (Aside: how can illegal things make it into a contract? Answer: there is the law (threat), and then the LAW (what a judge decides + what you will get arrested for)).
Critique of the case study method: lack of concern regarding the economy.
The Corporation
- Note: Take this film with a grain of salt; it is admittedly very critical of captialism (The film: http://archive.org/details/The_Corporation_) http://www.thecorporation.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Corporation_(film) Take away for the film: 1. Corporation is a legal person. 2. But what kind of a person is it? (Damaging / Psychotic)
