商品簡介
Of special concern in this year's report is the decline in direct foreign investment as it has spread from developing to developed countries between 2008 and 2009. The problem is addressed from the perspectives of the financial crisis, economic downturn, and foreign direct investment (FDI) flows; how the largest transnational corporations are coping with the global crisis; FDI by special funds; new developments in FDI policies; and regional trends. Returning then to regular programming, the report looks at corporations and agricultural production in developing countries, development implications of foreign corporate involvement in agriculture, and policy challenges and options in host and home countries and by international organizations.
