The legal recognition of corporations as independent entities and the introduction of limited liability transformed global commerce and reshaped business practices. Yet, the lack of ethical constraints within corporate frameworks, coupled with deregulation and free-market ideologies, has resulted in what some describe as an obsessive chase for wealth and influence. Today, corporate actions significantly influence our society, producing both positive outcomes and negative consequences. Instances of fraud, environmental harm, and technological exploitation highlight the potential damage that ethically indifferent corporations can inflict on communities.
