       California dreaming : twentieth-century corporate fictions
       at the end of the frontier -- "Domo arigato, Mr. Sakamoto,

       Conclusion: Corporate hegemony, cubed. 
520    "Worries over global economics aside, even representations
       of "American" corporations demonstrate that America's 
       preoccupation with the virtues and vices of capitalism has
       been ongoing and, moreover, responsive to its particular 
       historical context. For all their power, influence, and 
       pervasiveness, however, corporations also make themselves 
       into visible, material, and substantial targets for an 
       ever-changing system driven by unseen and immaterial 
       capital. And while the corporate imagination is bent upon 
       finding new ways to accumulate capital and convince 
       consumers to purchase more and more, our own imaginations 
       are not so easily bound so long as they remain focused on 
       conceiving of other possible lives and other possible 
       worlds to this one, and, in the end, fostering the common 
       commitment and the willingness to bring them about"--
