The article discusses the emergence of privately owned corporate collectivities that have become the agent of new economic system in the U.S. These are political and legal systems that use contracts as a legal instrument to join the nation's largest corporations to the federal government. The scientific and technological revolution leads to the union of entrepreneurship to organization and has changed the nature of government into a positive state. As an ultimate economic policymaker, the Supreme Court had established corporativism during the Depression. The establishment of the Council of Economic Advisers resulted in the active management of the economy and has been considered as one of the significant changes in the U.S. constitution.
