In Foreign Direct Investment, distinguished economists look at changes in FDI, including historical trends, specific country experiences, developments in the semiconductor industry, and variations in international mergers and acquisitions. Chapters cover such topics as theoretical accounts of FDI patterns, the growth of multinational enterprises, and the FDI experiences of Japan, the United States, and selected developing countries. This volume will interest economists, government officials, and business people concerned with FDI today. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research project report. 606 $aInvestments, Foreign 606 $aInvestments, Foreign$zUnited States 606 $aInvestments, American 606 $aInvestments, Asian$zUnited States 606 $aInternational business enterprises$zUnited States 610 $afdi, economy, economists, economics, history, historical trends, nation state, semiconductor industry, internationalism, international mergers, acquisition, multinational enterprises, japan, united states of america, developing countries, japanese, american, governments, governing, businesses, investment, asia, asian, merger, corporate, corporations. 615 0$aInvestments, Foreign. 615 0$aInvestments, Foreign 615 0$aInvestments, American. 615 0$aInvestments, Asian 615 0$aInternational business enterprises 676 $a332.6/73 701 $aFroot$b Kenneth$0133079 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819215603321 996 $aForeign direct investment$94113460 997 $aUNINA
