There are some excellent Australian researchers whose books documented these relationships. One close to home and one of the best was released around the year 1997:
http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/1632390 - suggest you get it - I still have some new ones floating about, packed in a box amongst our "stuff". If you or anyone wants one, PM me. His cross-referencing of relationships with board directors across many corporations is extensively detailed and very disturbing at the same time. From what I am aware of, none of his research info has been debunked thus far...... There are many agendas "out there" seeking to discredit researchers like this bloke but these attacks always come from (are orchestrated by) those who have the most to lose. Many claims made about him are lies. There are political and spiritual beliefs he stands for which we do not endorse or support - however he is a good man with a good heart who only seeks the very best for everyone.
A brief overview of this book just found on the net.........
"This is the story of a near dispossession of the richest country in the world, and one of the youngest in terms of industrial economics. It is a story of how a virile and intensive people have been sapped of faith and will. Some of this material appeared in a booklet I wrote in July 1991. It outlined a predetermined policy, discernible throughout the world, for the transfer of political and economic decision-making away from parliaments elected or otherwise to a global government. The idea has appeared under a number of names: globalism, the new world order, global governance, the new international economic order, etc. This book deals with whole new dimensions of the constant policy for global governance. For a time any rational discussion about this policy was dismissed. Notions of such a momentous change, it was suggested, were merely the delusions of conspiracy theorists or ignorant people. The charge of conspiratorialism became a stock-in-trade for lazy journalists, evasive politicians and isolated academics who knew the penalties for challenging the orthodox. A glossary of terms was employed to bury views that deviated from the mainstream racist, fascist, ultraconservative, extreme, and, increasingly anti-semitic. Years of this sort of social conditioning leads to a bottling-up process, apt to explode unexpectedly."
