The Corporeal ConstructCorporation, Performance, and the Architecture of Social RealityWhat if corporations are not just economic machines - but living social bodies that reshape consciousness, memory, and identity?In The Corporeal Construct, Baruch Menache delivers a bold and original work of social philosophy that redefines how we understand institutions, production, performance, and the hidden structures that govern modern life. Moving beyond traditional sociology and political theory, this book introduces a powerful framework for seeing corporations, institutions, and social systems as corporeal representations - organized bodies that simulate social life while quietly transforming it.Blending philosophy of consciousness, social theory, and institutional analysis, Menache reveals how modern structures:¿ Replace lived social experience with performance and representation¿ Shape identity, memory, and individuality through institutional systems¿ Turn production into simulation and work into symbolic participation¿ Influence political, economic, and cultural life without appearing to do soFrom industry and finance to family structures, governance, and technology,The Corporeal Construct uncovers the unseen architecture that organizes contemporary society.This is not a book about business - it is a book about how social reality itself is engineeredReaders interested in philosophy of society, consciousness studies, institutional power, sociology, political philosophy, systems theory, and the psychology of modern life will find a groundbreaking perspective that challenges familiar assumptions and opens an entirely new way of thinking about the world we inhabit.Provocative, rigorous, and deeply original, The Corporeal Construct is essential reading for those who want to understand not just how society functions - but how itconstructs the very experience of being human within itPerfect for readers of social philosophy, critical theory, institutional analysis, and consciousness studies.
