Public ISBD [article]  inTransnational Corporations > TRANSCORP 18/2 (August 2009) . - p. 69-89 Titre : EU enlargement and consequences for FDI-assisted industrial development : An essay in memory of Sanjaya Lall Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rajneesh Narula, Auteur ; Christian Bellak, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 69-89 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Multinationales  IDE  Union européenne  Europe de l'Est Résumé : Many of the new member states as well as candidate and accession countries of the EU are confident that membership will result in substantially increased inward foreign direct investment (FDI) in manufacturing. This paper discusses the policy issues and challenges that cohesion and accession countries face, applying lessons that by now have become mainstream in the parallel discussion of FDI-assisted development in the developing economies. We argue that globalization has attenuated the benefits that accrue from EU membership for latecomers, and that they must now compete for FDI not just with other European countries but also with non-EU emerging economies. We posit that they should not base their industrial development strategy on mere passive reliance on FDI flows without considering how to concatenate their industrial development and the nature of the TNC activities they attract.
