The Transnational Company which operate in more than one country or nation at a time -- have become some of the most powerful economic and political entities in the world today. From Joshua Karliner, in his book, The Corporate Planet: Ecology and Politics in the Age of Globalization, we can gleam a host of fundamental realizations, including the fact that many of these companies have far more power than the nation-states across whose borders they operate. for example Nokia is currently the number one manufacturer of mobile devices in the world. With a market share of about 38% in 2007 and with net sales of up to 51.1 billion Euros, there’s no doubt about the company’s significance and success.
