Can small latecomers to economic development use high-tech FDI to rapidly expand indigenous capabilities, thus shortcutting stages of the industrialization process? What conditions, economic and non-economic, must be met for this strategy to succeed? Using the cases of Ireland and Costa Rica, the author shows how the dynamics of the FDI-development nexus have changed over time, rendering problematic Costa Rica's attempt, and those of other latecomers, to replicate the Celtic Tiger's success story.Political scienceInternational economic relationsEconomic policyDevelopment economicsInternational relationsGlobalizationPolitical ScienceInternational Political Economy'Economic PolicyDevelopment EconomicsInternational RelationsGlobalizationPolitical science.International economic relations.Economic policy.Development economics.International relations.Globalization.Political Science.International Political Economy'.Economic Policy.Development Economics.International Relations.Globalization.332.67/3/097286Paus Eva1794029MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960714903321Foreign Investment, Development, and Globalization4334557UNINA
