...divestment, to give up the threat of real penalty to a corporation, is not necessarily that at all. Unfortunately, various corporate executives have indicated to me that they would be delighted if people who don't like their policies would simply sell their stock, and get out of their hair at shareholders' meetings. But even here. I think, the notion that holding the threat of divestment over their heads will be a threat is an empirical proposition which perhaps we should try to check.
