Dyer traces the origins of modern "corporateocracy" to the British East India Company, which operated above national laws. He compares modern elite boards to Plato's "Council of the Night" from the work *Magnesia*, where a secretive board of oligarchs governs without the public's knowledge. He asserts that the current global system is a refinement of these ancient and colonial models of control.
