Foreign Direct Investment in Brazil
Author: Mohamed Amal
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128020962
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Foreign Direct Investment in Brazil: Post-Crisis Economic Development in Emerging Markets explores both the inward and outward ways foreign direct investment (FDI) can help Brazil sustain economic growth and development in the sometimes hostile post-global crisis era. Inward and outward FDI have major roles to play in reviving Brazil's growth momentum and the country's transition to a new growth paradigm less dependent on commodity exports. The book provides a comprehensive discussion on the analytical framework of FDI and the policy environment influencing the patterns and development of FDI in Brazil. It compares Brazil to other developing countries, but its focus rests on how, and to what extent, the global crisis is shaping the Brazilian institutional environment and its implications for FDI. - Covers an important contemporary development issue focusing on the experience of one of the fastest growing and largest emerging economies in the world - Presents econometric findings using data at different levels of aggregation - Provides an in-depth study on the determinants of FDI and their relations to institutions - Explores both the inward and outward ways foreign direct investment (FDI) can help Brazil sustain economic growth and development in the sometimes hostile post-global crisis era

The Political Economy of Business Ethics in East Asia
Author: Ingyu Oh
Publisher: Chandos Publishing
ISBN: 0081006950
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
The Political Economy of Business Ethics in East Asia: A Historical and Comparative Perspective deals with modes of ethical persuasion in both public and private sectors of the national economy in East Asia, from the periods of the fourteenth century, to the modern era. Authors in this volume ask how, and why, governments in pre-modern Joseon Korea, modern Korea, and modern Japan used moral persuasion of different kinds in designing national economic institutions. Case studies demonstrate that the concept of modes of exchange first developed by John Lie (1992) provides a more convincing explanation on the evolution of pre-modern and modern economic institutions compared with Marx's modes of production as historically-specific social relations, or Smith's free market as a terminal stage of human economic development. The pre-modern and modern cases presented in this volume reveal that different modes of exchange have coexisted throughout human history. Furthermore, business ethics or corporate social responsibility is not a purely European economic ideology because manorial, market, entrepreneurial, and mercantilist moral persuasions had widely been used by state rulers and policymakers in East Asia for their programs of advancing dissimilar modes of exchange. In a similar vein, the domination of the market and entrepreneurial modes in the twenty-first century world is also complemented by other competing modes of change, such as state welfarism, public sector economies, and protectionism. - Compares Chinese, Japanese, and Korean business ethics from a comparative and historical context - Explores recent theoretical approaches to capitalist development in modern history in non-Western regions - Discusses the theoretical usefulness of new institutionalism, modes of exchange, and neoclassical discussions of business ethics - Evaluates historical texts in their own languages in its attempt to compare Chinese, Japanese, and Korean business ethics in the pre-modern and modern times
