Of the 100 entities with the largest gross national product, about half are multinational corporations companies larger and wealthier that many nation-states. Editors Chandler (business history, emeritus, Harvard U.) and Mazich (history, emeritus, MIT), convinced that these "new Leviathans" must be acknowledged, identified, and located, produced first Global Inc. , a historical atlas that shows the giant firms' reach. Now they've organized the atlas's conceptual counterpart, an exploration of the scope, history, development, cultural and social implications, and governance problems of the modern multinational corporation, with a goal of showing that the companies are not mere economic entities but part of a complex interplay of factors.
