About the product
This book contains written submissions presented by scholars and experts at an Expert Meeting on the development dimension of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), organized by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) in Geneva, in November 2002. The diverse and at times contradictory views expressed in this book cover topics such as policy measures on FDI implemented by host countries, the corporate responsibility of transnational corporations, and the right of countries to regulate FDI. These issues are at the core of the international community’s search for a balance between global objectives and the specific needs of developing countries in the area of FDI.
