Sovereignty and Transnational Corporations
Original language description
The position and role of transnational corporations (TNCs) vis-a-vis the concept of sovereign-ty is specific. TNCs operate as an organism (an economic and social reality of a net created by a mother society, subsidiaries, and their suppliers anchored in different jurisdictions). The article presents three areas where the interaction of a state’s sovereignty and TNCs is the most visible. First, it discusses the issue of self-limitation with respect to administrative jurisdiction in cases related to foreign direct investment and the risk to the host state in situations where such auto-limitation is not clearly framed. Second, the author presents the issue of human rights abuses committed by TNCs, the procedural challenges for redress, and the way-out created by soft law instruments adopted at an international level. Third, the concept of corporate citizenship is pre-sented, which might undermine national sovereignty.
