Foreign Direct Investment in a Changing Global Political Economy

This book examines foreign direct investment in a changing world economy. It offers case-studies of this investment in different national and industrial contexts. Firms and countries have encountered mixed results in using this investment to further their foreign leverage. Conversely, potential host countries have faced different opportunities and constraints in attracting or utilizing foreign capital for their development. Although some countries have been relatively successful, most do not appear to be well positioned to take advantage of the ongoing processes of globalization of national economies.Chan, Stephen is the author of 'Foreign Direct Investment in a Changing Global Political Economy' with ISBN 9780312123789 and ISBN 0312123787.
