Unilever: Palm Oil and Politics

What are the social and political effects of Unilever in the countries it inhabits?

The first in a series focusing on multi-national corporations, the programme focuses on Unilever. With a long history of looking after its employees, Niall FitzGerald, Chairmen of Unilever, explains the commercial underpinning of this core value. How does it justify its modern day paternalism, and what are the knock-on effects of becoming enmeshed in the social and political habits of the 90 countries it inhabits?
