This book is about the modern corporation. It is a tale of complexity, morality, efficiency, and freedom. Our culture is imbued with three myths stemming from our somewhat contradictory beliefs in the invisible hand and optimization by design. The first myth would have us believe that the modern corporation, based on property rights and enforceable contracts, is maximizing wealth and efficiency. The second myth would have us believe that profits and morality are disconnected from each other because they are subject to different constraints. The third myth would have us believe that private property rights over knowledge will deliver unabated economic growth, just as it happened during the industrial revolution. This book presents a bold vision of the modern corporation, one that some might find unsettling, for it calls into question the real implications of human agency, and the very notion of economic efficiency.

From angry shareholders to concerned chief executives, almost everyone knows at a gut level that the present political system is not working. This book finds the root cause to be poor corporate governance. In the prequel to this book, The Emperor’s Nightingale, Robert A. G. Monks, one of the world’s foremost shareholder activists, had warned corporations against putting short-profit ahead of long-term value for all stakeholders. Few listened – and the result was system-wide trauma that only bold solutions can heal. In The Emperor’s Nightmare, his latest book, Monks reveals what can happen when corporate leadership abandons the common good to court and conquer a powerful elite. This insightful, honest, and direct portrayal of corporate governance and the surrounding political system will be of immense value to those interested in corporate governance – particularly shareholder and stakeholder advocates, and the true corporate leaders who serve them. In the end, better corporate governance means better democracy. This book shows the way.
