Аннотация
Присутствие транснациональных компаний в Африке вызывает все больше споров среди исследователей и активистов, причем одни сторонники поддерживают их как экономических вкладчиков в развитие африканского континента, а другие критики утверждают, что транснациональные компании коррумпированы, эксплуатируют людей, уклоняются от налогов, являются империалистами и так далее. На этом фоне целью данного исследования стал обзор литературы о недобросовестной практике транснациональных компаний в Африке с целью выявления наиболее распространенных видов недобросовестной практики, вызывающих споры о присутствии транснациональных компаний в Африке, а затем выработка рекомендаций, которые помогут африканским правительствам бороться с этой недобросовестной практикой и искоренить ее. Результаты исследования показывают, что основными негативными практиками транснациональных компаний являются коррупция и взяточничество, уклонение от уплаты налогов и мошенничество, эксплуатация труда и империализм. Утверждается, что транснациональные корпорации обладают значительным потенциалом экономической мощи, которая может принести пользу принимающей стране. Но ею можно и злоупотребить, если она недостаточно хорошо проверена или ограничена. Исследование показывает, что отсутствие прочной правовой базы и международной подотчетности в африканских странах является основной причиной быстрого роста этой порочной практики. Правительствам настоятельно рекомендуется рассматривать многонациональные корпорации как «необходимую угрозу» для развития своих стран и в то же время разрабатывать и проводить сильные политические реформы, политику, правовую базу, трудовое законодательство и международную подотчетность для сдерживания и искоренения этой практики.
