Description

Explore the history of global governance with this detailed account of the United Nations Centre on Transnational Corporations (UNCTC). Established in 1975 and active until 1992, the UNCTC represented an early attempt by the UN to navigate the complex relationship between national sovereignty, corporate responsibility, and international oversight. As globalization has increased the scale of these challenges, this book provides essential context for understanding how international organizations manage global corporate conduct. Written from an insider perspective by two former staff members, this text serves as both a historical record and a collective memoir. It examines the successes and difficulties faced by the UNCTC as it worked to address the friction between corporations and the public interest. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in the evolution of international law, business ethics, and the history of the United Nations. Gain a deeper understanding of the lessons learned from this significant era in global institutional history.
