The Impact

This chapter discusses the role of government policies in fostering, or inhibiting, foreign direct investment (FDI) by multinational companies in emerging nations. Using World Bank data on 149 emerging nations, the chapter examines the impact of government policies and institutions on the magnitude of inward FDI each country receives. Certainly, socioeconomic factors such as the size of the local market, human capital, and skills remain powerful determinants of FDI flows. But, ceteris paribus, the results show that the institutional environment does plays a substantial role in determining the magnitude of FDI inflows received by a nation. Globalization, measured by FDI as well as trade, data, and people flows, is cyclical. But all in all, globalization has seen a massive increase since the 1980s, when a sea change occurred in government policies toward international business. Formerly socialist and inward-oriented policies were almost universally replaced by a liberal free-market posture.

Compare And Contrast

Some 134 national broadband plans are now in place around the world. Opinions are divided regarding the role of government in broadband markets: should the government act as an ‘enabler’ or as the ‘rule-maker’? In this context, this article analyses the ambitious national broadband plans recently announced by China and India, two rising economic powerhouses. Traditionally, China's telecommunications development has been driven by investments from government-allied entities and a strong industrial policy, while India's approach has relied on government policy to create the framework for private investment with a limited range of subsidies on the supply side. We trace the antecedents of the different policy approaches adopted by the two countries towards their respective broadband sectors, compare and contrast the motivations that have driven them to draft the national broadband plans and evaluate the effectiveness of government policies and regulations.

The aim of this study is to investigate empirically the factors that determine the level of automobile trade in East Asian countries by taking into account government policies as well as the role of MNEs. To do so, in this study we include dummies of import substitution industrialisation (ISI) and export orientation industrialisation (EOI) policies as well as Japanese FDI as additional explanatory variables in our augmented gravity models. We found that GDPs, distance, per capita income, FTA, government policies, language and FDI are the determinants for the development of automobile industry in each country in East Asia. In the case of auto P&C, apart from economic size, the role of government through trade policy (i.e., FTA) and industrial policies as well as the role of MNCs are the major contributors to the development both exports and imports of East Asian countries. In the case of final automobiles, the role of FTA and language seems to be unimportant. Nonetheless, the role of government policies and MNCs seem to be important.
