The UN and Transnational Corporations: From Code of Conduct to Global Compact This book will examine the intellectual contributions spawned within, or filtered through, the galaxy of disparate units
of the United Nations on the role of transnational corporations (TNCs) and their impact on economic development and international relations. It will seek to
determine whether, and in what respects, the UN has been ahead of the curve of scholarly understanding on this topic and of the institutions and policies of both
national governments and supranational entities in response to the increasing role of TNC activity in the global economy.
