The ivory towers have fallen. British science has been captured by
corporations, claims George Monbiot鈥檚 Captive State: The corporate takeover
of Britain. In a chapter on research, for example, he shows how BP, Shell,
Zeneca, Sainsbury鈥檚 and other corporations dominate research funding councils
and Foresight Panels, deciding what is researched and what is not. Often the
result is 鈥渁n inverse relationship between research needs and research funds鈥�,
he says. As when university energy research serves the needs of what he
describes as fat-cat oil-industry paymasters, rather than kick-starting
renewables for the 21st century. We all make our compromises: Monbiot鈥檚
back-flap biography plugs Sony and Lloyds. Still, this important piece of
investigative journalism reveals how far we have all succumbed to the corporate
culture. Published by Macmillan, 拢12.99, ISBN 0333901649.
