Why we're better off treating corporations as people under the
law-and making them behave like citizens Are corporations people?
The U.S. Supreme Court launched a heated debate when it ruled in
Citizens United that corporations can claim the same free speech
rights as humans. Should they be able to claim rights of free
speech, religious conscience, and due process? Kent Greenfield
provides an answer: Sometimes. With an analysis sure to challenge
the assumptions of both progressives and conservatives, Greenfield
explores corporations' claims to constitutional rights and the
foundational conflicts about their obligations in society and
concludes that a blanket opposition to corporate personhood is
misguided, since it is consistent with both the purpose of
corporations and the Constitution itself that corporations can
claim rights at least some of the time. The problem with Citizens
United is not that corporations have a right to speak, but for whom
they speak. The solution is not to end corporate personhood but to
require corporations to act more like citizens.
