Abstract:
We have chosen to study the FDI topic as its world table of flows’ landscape, together with the role of individual countries as adequate in context in a series of papers of both large(r) and narrow(er) size(s). A distinct theory of FDI (sources) was equally needed – while / despite that other several theories were already existent – and this was drawn together with a corresponding model in two parts that were also called ‚models’. ‚Model one’ was aimed to study on data directly offered by UNCTAD – FDI-inflows and/versus DIA-outflows, as a double basis – and focuses on analyses that are seen as [A] static and [B] dynamic views. ‚Model two’ prefers the FDI-DIA double basis turn into a unique-basis with a different accounting concept and so/then the two models: (i) found a deeply uneven distribution of FDI&DIA sources together with a general trend of remaking the FDI=DIA flows by individual countries; (ii) also found a reduced number of countries, in the total number of them world-wide, detaining world capital majorities on both FDI&DIA, plus a cumulated deficit (FDI= DIA) that actually makes the FDI activity popular for a larger number of countries, at the same; (iii) helped the description of the FDI&DIA picture world-wide by world regions and countries, in which (iv) the regions reached a general classification, as FDI&DIA behavioral and (v) sections of the international capital were found on the world territory encompassing individual countries and regions, and so, finally, (vi) our research tried to get at least to the major FDI&DIA flows world-wide during a quarter a century representative epoch like the 1990-2015 interval is. All remaining to complete such a study on those data is the second part of model one, the FDI&DIA dynamic view – i.e. while all the previous results and findings see the whole interval done, the dynamic analysis will be the lonely one viewing it also by parts. It is what will be developed in/by the paper below.
