With the achievement of further EU and NATO enlargement, a critical
political and economic lens is now focused on East Central Europe
and, to a lesser extent, the other former communist states.
Economic growth in each transition state - and more broadly the
region - pivots around the prospects for foreign direct investment
(FDI), with decisions on where foreign investors will locate their
projects now vitally important. This book - the first one devoted
to a geographical survey concentrating specifically on FDI in the
region - brings together a wide range of prominent authors from the
US and Europe, including the late Frank Carter, to provide a timely
and critical examination of the importance of foreign investment.
It presents a detailed analysis of location patterns and their
significance for regional development, with particular emphasis
given to the important socioeconomic and political consequences of
uneven distribution of FDI across the region and its constituent
countries. Divided into two parts, the book first deals with
general overarching themes and issues before applying these to more
specific country case studies. The second part deals with regional
studies, focusing broadly on the Western Balkans and Bulgaria,
before looking at specific economic sectors in individual
countries.
