Good point. Corporatist, in that the state is basically a "bundle" (fasces, from which we also get fascia) of corporations.



Corporatism actually refers to the government, businesses, unions, church, and other institutions (the exact institutions included varying between forms of corporatism) working together as parts of a body; it is not derived from the use of “corporation” for a business entity.


Ah, thanks.
