Beskrivning
This book takes a fresh look at unresolved issues associated with the role of multinational enterprises and foreign direct investment in economic development in light of the experiences of developing countries in Asia.Each chapter presents a self-contained treatment of a specific theme relating to the developmental implications of MNEs, encompassing the current state of the debate, and relevant theory and policy implications. The key aspects of MNE-development interface covered in the book include expansion of manufacturing exports, global integration through international fragmentation of production, research and development, productivity growth, susceptibility to and recovery from financial crises, macroeconomic adjustment and international competitiveness, and economic transition from plan to market.Multinational Enterprises in Asian Development will prove a valuable reference tool for academics, researchers and students focusing on trade, development and international business. Professional economists and policy makers wishing to broaden their understanding of the role of MNEs as an integral part of the international development policy will also find much to interest them in this book.

'. . . provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the presence of FDI in Asian countries and addresses the role played by MNEs, in terms of new intra-regional and inter-regional dynamics based on a collection of recent empirical studies. The author also presents fresh insights on policy issues related to the coexistence of regional competition and integration among Asian economies when attracting FDI, which are both in the focus of public debate at the heart of policy-making worldwide in the face of the ongoing globalisation process. . . the author takes up a very interesting, and also highly demanding task. . . Multinational Enterprises in Asian Development is an excellent collection of up-to-date empirical evidence, in which we can find inspiring insights into the ongoing and deepend integration of MNEs' activities in the national and regional economies of Asian countries. Both for researchers who specialise in Asian economies and for a more general audience, this volume will be very informative thanks to the insightful historical and cross-country comparisons. This volume has indeed narrowed the gap between our observations of MNEs activities and our understanding of the potential implications for the economic devekioment and policy-making in Asian countries.'
