The Quarterly Journal of Economics, 1986
Direct investment is incorporated into a simple general equilibrium model of international trade. The analysis focuses on an attempt to endogenize the internalization decision.

Abstract Stephen Hymer (1960, 1976) argues that a desire to increase market power is a strong motive for foreign takeovers.

This paper shows that foreign direct investment can increase markups under Bertrand competition when firms are ...

Investments in the North by Southern firms are still unusual. While such investments may be motivated by tariff jumping and internalization, casual empiricism suggests that such reverse DFI may be motivated by improved technology access. This paper examines, within a theoretical framework, whether enhanced technology access provides sufficient ...
