RALPH NADER TO SPEAK AT BOISE STATE ON CORPORATIZATION Ralph Nader will talk at Boise State University at 7 p.m. on April 16 at the Morrison Center. Nader’s lecture, titled "The Corporatization of America," will focus on the growing "imperialism" of multinational corporations and on the dangerous implications of the convergence of corporate and government power. Additionally, his lecture will address ways to affect change. "To go through life as a non-citizen would be to feel that there’s nothing you can do, that nobody’s listening, that you don’t matter," Nader has said, "But to be a citizen is to enjoy the deep satisfaction of seeing the prevention of pain, misery and injustice." When asked to define himself Ralph Nader has said, "Full-time citizen, the most important office in America for anyone to achieve." Nader takes his position very seriously. He has written or collaborated on countless books on consumer advocacy, and has founded or inspired the formation of many organizations that advance public interests. As a result, his criticism of government and industry has had a widespread effect on public awareness and bureaucratic power.
