摘要

摘要对尼日利亚跨国公司(TNCs)的研究受到阻碍或充满了方法上的挑战。因此,本文以案头研究为基础,揭示了跨国公司、公司权力和注册地原则的概念,从而对尼日利亚跨国公司的运作方式(安全、保密和准入挑战)进行研究时所经历的方法障碍(安全、保密和准入挑战)进行了质疑,重点是尼日利亚壳牌石油开发公司(SPDC)。考虑跨国公司对薄弱或垂死的国家机构、日益加剧的腐败、缺乏足够的权利知识和双重标准所造成的空白的探索,对于缓解研究公司权力的挑战来说是神圣不可侵犯的。本文认为,在非洲弱国,注册地主义表现为撤资威胁、对政府的不当影响、工人的临时工化、腐败行为和逃税,企业权力在追求利润最大化的过程中采用霸权倾向。关键词。跨国公司,液化天然气,跨国能源公司,OPEC, SPDC。冻胶。H11 h50 c13 c22。

The challenges of researching corporate power: The case of Shell Petroleum Development Company in Nigeria (SPDC)
Abstract. The research on Transnational Corporations (TNCs) in Nigeria is encumbered or fraught with methodological challenges. Thus, this paper which relies on desk research, unveils the conceptualization of TNCs, Corporate Powers and the Doctrine of Domicile thereby interrogating the methodological encumbrances – (security, secrecy and access challenges) experienced in conducting researches on the modus operandi of TNCs in Nigeria with focus on Shell Petroleum Development Company in Nigeria (SPDC). The consideration of Transnational Corporations’ exploration of the lacuna created by weak or moribund state institutions, escalating corruption, lack of adequate knowledge of rights and double standards become sacrosanct in bringing about ease in the challenges of researching corporate power. The paper argues that in weak African states, the doctrine of domicile manifests through threat of divestment, undue influence on government, casualization of workers, corrupt practices and tax evasion where corporate power employ hegemonic tendencies in pursuit of  its profit maximization drive.. Keywords. Transnational corporations, Liquefied natural gas, Multinational energy corporations, OPEC, SPDC. JEL. H11, H50, C13, C22.
