This book offers an appraisal of what governments are currently doing to regulate transnational corporations across the world, and highlights a marked contrast in the concern different countries have over transnationals' activities.
The potential ease with which transnational corporations can relocate their activities gives them great leverage over individual governments. The authors outline the various policies that the world's major economies have adopted to cope with the unique issues created by transnationals. They reveal that there has been a marked contrast in the level of concern about transnationals' activities across the countries studied, and that this has resulted in significantly different approaches towards transnationals.
