Calling it force is probably the wrong word. Its usually the larger company/country approaching the smaller company/country with a business opportunity. There are cases of smaller countries essentially searching out larger markets for goods too, but in either case, both sides want to make money. The problem as I see it, is that the larger entity usually has more power with money and politics, and will push to increase profits as much as possible, without regard to the negatives that would affect the smaller entity.
Even if there are negatives that affect a large amount of people, you dont have to pay off each person it effects, you just have to pay the government or get someone elected or whatever it is.
America does it all over the world, we have a tradition of overthrowing governments for profit. Russia has also done it as well, and to a lesser degree so has China.
The bigger the imbalance generally the worse off the smaller group is.
