Lesson 6
international business
text
the international corporation or global company has its origin. usually it is the outgrowth of the great trading companies of the 17th and 18th centuries. in 1811 a new york statute said corporations could be created by the filing of documents. after that it became a matter of bureaucratic operations to become a corporation. by 1850 it was a very common thing in the united states and was under general statute in european countries as well. since that time the corporate movement began. as the jet plane, satellite communications and computers began, it became possible for a company to control business in all the world.
the growth of international corporates operations is faster than the economic growth of the industrialized nations. there are some projects which predict that within a generation almost a half of the free words production will be internationalized.
this trend for internationalism presupposes some benefits such as new jobs, higher living standards and the closing of the gaps between people – economic, educational and technological. at the same time serious questions can be asked. is it the most efficient way to use world researches? can the international corporation be the best force for a better world? is it politically stronger than government? can it take care of the self interest and competitiveness on behalf of the greatest good? and in what way can the global company work toward easing the worlds crises – monetary, political, energy and food?
