Produktbeschreibung
Pinto develops a partisan theory of foreign direct investment (FDI) arguing that left-wing governments choose policies that allow easier entry by foreign investors more than right-wing governments, and that foreign investors prefer to invest in countries governed by the left. To reach this determination, the book derives the conditions under which investment flows should be expected to affect the relative demand for the services supplied by economic actors in host countries. Based on these expected distributive consequences, a political economy model of the regulation of FDI and changes in investment performance within countries and over time is developed. The theory is tested using both cross-national statistical analysis and two case studies exploring the development of the foreign investment regimes and their performance over the past century in Argentina and South Korea.

Rezensionen
'Pinto explores one of the key political questions asked of globalization: when and why would a government seek foreign direct investment? By providing analysts with a lucid and thorough examination of data on cross-country variation in both flows and regulation of FDI, Pinto shows how and why left-leaning parties are more likely to support FDI. This is a must-read book for scholars interested in economic development, globalization, and the politics of investment.' Judith Goldstein, Stanford University
