Abstract :
The economic power of Multi National Companies (MNCs) has made many developing countries unable to enforce their national laws against MNCs. This condition invites international law to fill the gaps when national laws fail to make MNCs responsible for damages caused by their operation. However, the main obstacle for the implementation of international law against MNCs is the fact that MNCs has no legal personality in international law. This article is aimed to discuss the recent status of MNCs under international law, the impact that may occur and efforts by international organization to make MNCs liable. It is proposed that MNCs should be granted limited rights under internasional law in order to make them directly and legally responsible.
