“O intuiþie comunã ne spune ca lumea asta e dominata de o mana de corporatii puternice”, se arata in introducerea studiului. Nimeni insa nu a confirmat sau infirmat cu date si cifre aceasta ipoteza. Pana acum. Trei cercetatori. Toti elvetieni. Toti de la Institutul federal de tehnologie din Zurich. Ei bine, cei trei au facut un studiu. O sa incep cu sfarsitul. Deci ( ca sa incep inteligent) cu ce au descoperit ei, adica. Deci 80% din tot ce inseamna transnationale e controlat de 737 de entitati (persoane, banci, firme de asigurari samd.) Mai mult: 147 companii multinaþionale controleaza cam 40% din valoarea economicã ºi financiarã a tuturor multinaþionalelor. Cele 147, se contrag (prin detinere indirecta) in 50 de mari detinatori de capital, denumiti “super-organismul“. Iatã lista celor 50 de mega-corporaþii care conduc lumea. in tabel sunt trecute pe coloane, de la stanga la dreapta: numarul de ordine, numele, codul de þarã (chiar ºi o multinaþionalã este înregistratã undeva !), codul CAEN, poziþia de reþea ºi cota de control cumulativ la nivel mondial (ceam mai relevantã d.p.d.v. al studiului):
