520 |a Globally, policymakers and scientists are increasingly recognizing that close direct and indirect interaction between multinationals and local businesses is essential if foreign investment is to have a profound, lasting positive effect on the host country. Nevertheless, the interaction between multinationals (MNCs) and local companies has received relatively little attention in the scientific literature. This book aims to contribute to this with a number of studies in development economies into the spillover and linkage effects of MNCs on local companies. In addition, it describes policy experiences of various countries in their attempt to promote closer interactions between MNCs and local businesses. This book focuses in particular on researchers in economics, business administration, international relations, political science, development and area studies. Policy makers in the development field can also draw inspiration from it. 
520 |a Wereldwijd erkennen beleidsmakers én wetenschappers in toenemende mate dat hechte directe en indirecte interactie tussen multinationals en lokale bedrijven essentieel is, willen buitenlandse investeringen een diepgaand, blijvend positief effect hebben op het gastland. Toch heeft de interactie tussen multinationals (MNCs) en lokale bedrijven nog relatief weinig aandacht gekregen in de wetenschappelijke literatuur. Dit boek beoogt hieraan bij te dragen met een aantal studies in ontwikkelingseconomieën naar de spillover- en linkage-effecten van MNCs op lokale bedrijven. Bovendien beschrijft het beleidservaringen van diverse landen in hun poging hechtere interacties tussen MNCs en lokale ondernemingen te bevorderen. Dit boek richt zich met name op onderzoekers in de economie, bedrijfskunde, internationale betrekkingen, politicologie, ontwikkelings- en gebiedsstudies. Ook beleidsmakers in het ontwikkelingsveld kunnen er inspiratie uit halen.
