Multinational Corporation

write a critical report about a Multinational Corporation of your choice selected from the following list. The report should focus on issues of a socio-political nature relevant to the corporation’s host and/or home country environment past and, where possible, present. This is a research assignment so you will need to provide appropriate and properly cited sources—you should have a minimum THREE academically appropriate sources (excluding company website). There is no maximum number of sources, but stay within reason.
Select an MNC and show how it is affected by (or affects) political, social, and/or cultural/environmental factors in at least 2 of the countries in which it operates. Give only a very brief background of the company and focus your attention on defining and analyzing political concerns raised in its operations and relationships. These can include governmental attitudes/policies of relevance in host and/or home states, NGO actions/reactions, media and academic responses, and so forth. Things to consider:

1. why have you chosen this particular corporation from this particular country (or countries)?
2. briefly: what are its “brand names” and/or area(s) of specialization?
3. what sort of industries/sectors does it operate in?
4. what is the scope of its operations (i.e. OECD countries mostly or only? Less developed world?)
5. what sort of image does it project through its website, CSR statements etc? and is this image correlated with its activities and the informed opinion of outside observers? (e.g. its operations, its membership—or not—in the UN Global Compact or similar initiatives)
6. how closely is the corporation tied to the home state? (this is especially relevant for Chinese companies)
7. most importantly: what sorts of negative or positive contributions has the corporation made to workers, various stakeholders, general citizens, civil society, the physical environment, overall development (or not) of host and/homes sates of operations? Note: This is a guide, NOT an exhaustive list, and some of these factors are not necessarily relevant.
   The report should be no longer than 4-5 pages double spaced (1200 words maximum excluding bibliography,12 pt. font, double- spacing, and regular margins). Please write in indented paragraphs not point form and avoid lengthy appendices. The report must be fully and properly cited and include an attached bibliography.
