Influencing investment decisions requires an understanding of how investment works. Kavaljit Singh explains the central role of Transnational Corporations (TNCs) and other key players in determining investment patterns. He debunks some of the myths surrounding investment flows and he suggests ways in which investment can be brought back under the democratic control of people and governments. Kavaljit Singh maps out investment flows trends and regulatory frameworks and shows where citizens can work and are working to reclaim investment for the public good. 176 pp. Artikel-Nr. 70524
