Chapter 2 in Inward Investment Technological Change and Growth, 2001, pp 34-65 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The existence of spillover efficiency benefits to host country economies from inward foreign direct investment (FDI) is well documented in the literature.1 The determinants of the size and scope of the spillover benefits have also been studied, but they are not as clearly and consistently documented as the existence and magnitude of the relevant externalities.
