CHANGES IN THE COLLECTIVE HEGEMONY OF STATE-POWERS AND TRANSNATIONAL CORPORATIONS IN THE BEGINNING OF XXI CENTURY

This paper bases on the idea of the global collective hegemony of state-powers and transnational corporations that stabilizes the economic and political world system Author stresses changes of this hegemony in the beginning of XXI century because of a relative drop of the economic position of the United States, Great Britain, France and Japan and because of the growth of the economic position and political power of China and Germany. Moreover, an increase of global importance of transnational corporations gives them opportunities to influence on the state politics.
