This is the first full account of how an influential form of
commercial organization - the multinational enterprise - drove
globalization and contributed to the making of the modern world.
Robert Fitzgerald explores the major role of multinational
enterprises in the events of world history, from the nineteenth
century to the present, revealing how the growth of businesses that
operated across borders contributed to an unprecedented worldwide
transformation and deepening interdependence between countries. He
demonstrates how international businesses shaped the economic
development and competitiveness of nations, their politics and
sovereignty, and the balance of power in international relations.
The Rise of the Global Company uses the lessons of history to
question prominent contemporary interpretations of multinationals
and their consequences, and offers a truly wide-ranging survey of
multinational enterprise, spanning two hundred years and five
continents.
