The incorporation of the non-profit sector in tandem with funders' 
insistence that grantees be corporations further marginalizes 
populations that are already marginalized. The cynic in me has to wonder 
if this isn't deliberate.

At any rate, in trying to find sources on the history of incorporation 
(I've a dim recollection it was modelled on the concept of citizenship), 
I came across this reference from an online bookseller:

    The Incorporation of America: Culture and Society in the Gilded Age
    by Alan Trachtenberg (1984).

Has anyone read this book or know of more recent and, ideally from my 
perspective, sources specifically addressing the incorporation of 
Canadian life?
