Why do states block some foreign direct investment on national
security grounds even when it originates from within their own
security community? Government intervention into foreign takeovers
of domestic companies is on the rise, and many observers find it
surprising that states engage in such behaviour not only against
their strategic and military competitors, but also against their
closest allies. Ashley Lenihan argues that such puzzling behaviour
can be explained by recognizing that states use intervention into
cross-border mergers and acquisitions as a tool of statecraft to
internally balance the economic and military power of other states
through non-military means. This book tests this theory using
quantitative and qualitative analysis of transactions in the United
States, Russia, China, and fifteen European Union states. It
deepens our understanding of why states intervene in foreign
takeovers, the relationship between interdependence and conflict,
the limits of globalization, and how states are balancing power in
new ways. This title is also available as Open Access.
