Titel und Abstract des Dissertationsprojektes

“An Inquiry into Uncertainty, FDI and Job Creation - Empirical Application to ASIA”
Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Paul J. J. Welfens (Jean Monnet Chair for European Economic Integration, Wuppertal)

Abstract in Progress:
“This study envisages to examine behavior of FDI inflows to Asia where Macroeconomic uncertainty is coupled with political uncertainty. Objective of this work is to study the differences in FDI inflows and its performance in different countries or group of countries in ASIA. Particularly FDI performance in terms of contribution to economic growth and intensity to create jobs will be investigated empirically. The study combines both macro economic and political uncertainty. This work has special significance for the region as FDI has greater role to play. Again, jobless growth is an observable fact the world over and Asia is no exception to the rule”
