The impact of FDI on the economies of developing countries

This book explores in depth the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on the economies of developing countries, with a particular focus on the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Through rigorous analysis, the author examines the various mechanisms by which FDI influences key economic sectors such as industry, agriculture and infrastructure in a context of globalization. The DRC, rich in natural resources, is an ideal study ground for understanding the effects of these investments on economic development, but also on the social and environmental challenges they can engender. By analyzing FDI flows, the book highlights the advantages and disadvantages for the local economy, employment sectors, GDP growth, as well as the impact on sustainability and economic sovereignty.Essential reading for researchers, economists, students and policymakers interested in the dynamics of economic development and strategies for attracting foreign investment in developing countries.
