This book provides an overview of international investment policy
and policy-making, drawing upon perspectives from law, economics,
international business, and political science. International
investment is a complex phenomenon with significant effects
worldwide. Developing effective policies and strategies to attract
investment in sufficient quantities and marshal it to contribute to
sustainable development is a critical challenge for governments at
all levels. This book's interdisciplinary approach provides fresh
insights into the mix of policy options available to governments
seeking investment to support their country's (or region's)
development. As well as identifying ways to effectively design,
implement, and assess policies to attract foreign investment, it
explores how to manage foreign investment's effects. Various
dimensions of international investment policy are discussed,
including benefits and costs (economic, environmental, social, and
political) of foreign investment, the significance of global value
chains, state-owned enterprises and sovereign wealth funds, and the
role of tax policy, investment promotion, and policy advocacy,
location branding, investment treaties, and national security
considerations. Through its contributions to a new
interdisciplinary understanding of international investment
policy-making, this book will benefit students and scholars working
in areas such as international business, international economic
law, international economics, development economics, international
development, and international political economy as well as being a
valuable resource for policy-makers.
