Theoretically speaking, capitalist countries have achieved a high degree of internationalization with large-scale multinational corporations as contemporary monopolistic capital. This presents a new research topic for scholars who have long studied contemporary monopolistic capitalism. It is highly significant for us to correctly understand and develop Marxist-Leninist theories of monopolistic capitalism, as well as to deeply grasp the contemporary characteristics and specific manifestations of monopolistic capital. The book is divided into nine chapters, systematically introducing aspects such as the definition, nature, development, and changes of multinational corporations, the internationalization of business operations, international direct investment, theories of direct investment, strategic alliances of multinational corporations, mergers and acquisitions involving multinational corporations, internal trade and transfer pricing within multinational corporations, and technology transfer involving multinational corporations.
