It provides a clear picture of China's current FDI policies, identifies the major changes that have taken place, and illustrates how the policies are no longer optimal. It is argued that sharing the fruits of the country's recent economic growth with the people of minority regions is not only important for the well-being of these marginalized populations, but is also crucial for the political stability, social and economic development, and international influence of China as a whole.ENMultinational FirmsInternational Business F230Economic Development: Financial MarketsSaving and Capital InvestmentCorporate Finance and Governance O160Economic Development: Regional, Urban, and Rural AnalysesTransportation O180International Linkages to DevelopmentRole of International Organizations O190Socialist Systems and Transitional Economies: National Income, Product, and ExpenditureMoneyInflation P240Socialist Systems and Transitional Economies: Urban, Rural, and Regional Economics P250Socialist Institutions and Their Transitions: International Trade, Finance, Investment, and Aid P330Journal ArticleWorld Bank
