International Business Associations and Regulations on Multinational Corporations, 1960-1990 with Maia MüllerHagley History Hangout PodcastYou can find the new episode here or where you find podcasts: https://www.hagley.org/research/history-hangout-maia-m-ller The mid-twentieth century emergence of multinational corporations wealthier and more powerful than many nations presented a problem for organizations tasked with overseeing international cooperation and development. How to create a regulatory framework around multinationals that would protect the interests of disadvantaged peoples and regions, while not limiting the ability of multinational corporations to deliver economic development. In turn, international business associations reacted to this push toward regulation with a well-organized opposition. In her dissertation research, Maia Müller, PhD candidate at the University of Lausanne, examines the role of business associations in the struggle over regulation of multinational corporations between the 1960s and 1990s. These powerful lobbying organizations provided a unified and legitimizing voice advocating for the perceived interests of the business community, one increasingly dominated by multinational corporations. Her transnational study reveals the secret influence had by lobbyists in the construction and operation of the world economy. In support of her work Müller received funding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.
