Abstract
The complex relationships that occur between countries, market and private actors have been simplified in theoretical approaches such as realism, neo-liberalism and globalization. However, their relationship is not a zero-sum game but one of ‘complex governance’ where all actors have to be considered to understand the changes in the international system.
Key words: Trans-national corporation, countries, realism, neo-liberalism, private regime, relationship, global governance.
