Corporate entities
Corporate entity
Corporate entities — states, companies, parties, religious orders, institutions — are a hybrid species born from the symbiosis of the human and the idea. Hence the paradox of the corporate entity: it is a product of Nomos, yet it is locked in pure Physis mode. The distinguishing difference is the source of death — for the human it is entropy, and others are allies; for the corporate entity it is others, rivals and the market. That is what pushes it toward singularity.
