Abstract

Con el ánimo de ilustrar el panorama económico y político que surge a partir de la crisiseconómica y financiera que tuvo lugar en 2008, la presente investigación tuvo porobjeto analizar el cambio que ha tenido la capacidad de acción de las CorporacionesMultinacionales sobre los Estados.Teniendo en cuenta el dinamismo de esta relación, ha sido útil el uso de un enfoqueque combina aspectos históricos y contemporáneos para una lectura de la crisis queprovee una tesis en la que se armonizan variables que modifican (según el contexto) laincidencia de estas empresas. Dichas variables se resumen en el empleo, el impactoen el PIB, la movilidad y el acceso al mercado internacional de capitales; que aparecen,entonces, como las principales fuentes de apalancamiento de las CMN en sus procesos denegociación con los Estados.Por último se hace una revisión del capitalismo estatal como fenómeno que es precisono dejar de lado, al valorar el rol que ocupa en las economías actuales, y se presentan-aunque en otra medida- las relaciones existentes entre varios casos específicos y sucorrecto desempeno. The state and the multinationals. Possible consequences of the 2008 crisis on power balance This research aims to analyze the changes on the Multinational Corporations capacity of action over the States, in order to illustrate the economic and political panorama that arose since the 2008 economic and financial crisis. This is analyzed taking into account the dynamic relation between States and Multinationals and the use of an approach that combines historical and contemporary aspects. Both provide a thesis which harmonizes the variables (such as employment, impact on GDP, mobility and capital international markets) that modify the incidence on companies and, that appear as the main sources of liability of Multinational Corporations in their negotiating processes with the States. Finally, this study reviews the State capitalism as a phenomenon that values the existent role of current economies and, presents the relations between specific cases and their performance.
