‘All the papers have good summaries or conclusion. Together, this volume does a nice job in covering many of the issues in research on direct foreign investment and multinational firms.’
– Mark Jelavich, The Journal of Economics
‘It provides a valuable source of readings for those teaching specialist courses in international economics and for students researching aspects of international investment.’
– Jerry Oakley, The Economic Journal
The economics of international investment is an area in which many important theoretical and empirical contributions have been made over recent years. This volume draws together a series of original new essays which reflect and refine developments in the concepts, theories and tools of analysis of international investment and uses them to analyse recent issues posed by the growth and altered structure of international investment.
