Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze how liberal political and legal doctrines and the transnational paradigm favor the development and influence of transnational corpora- tions (TNCs). By promoting free markets and minimal state intervention, liberalism and neoliberalism create a globalized environment in which TNCs can thrive. The transna- tional paradigm emphasizes the interpenetration of economies and societies, which highlights the farreaching effects of TNC activities. The article explores the theoretical foundations of these concepts and shows the relationship between these ideologies and the expansion of TNCs. The article discusses the following issues: the theoretical foundations of liberalism and neoliberalism. The research question was asked: What are the key assumptions of these doctrines and how do they influence the shaping of the global economy? The transnational paradigm was analyzed by posing the research question: what does the transnational paradigm mean and what are its implications for the activities of TNCs? On this basis, the impact of liberalism, neoliberalism and the tran- snational paradigm on the activities of TNCs was analyzed. The question was answered: how do liberal doctrines and the transnational paradigm create favorable conditions for the development and expansion of TNCs? Using the analysis of domestic and for- eign literature, the article provides a comprehensive picture of how changes in the global economic order affect the activities of the world’s largest corporations.
