Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A significant volume of literature has been developed that seeks to provide an explanation for the growth of FDI and its impact on less developed countries. The literature is characterized by diversity and controversy. Based on it, a range of reasons for encouraging investment have been proposed including its favorable effects on employment levels, the balance of payments and balance of trade of the host country and also the potential for acquisition of technology and skills (Cave: 1982 and Dunning: 1993). Equally, the potentially negative effects of growing levels of foreign investment on domestic market structures and national sovereignty have long been the focus of attention (Vernon: 1971 and Jenkins: 1987). More recent studies focused on the positive effect FDI can create through the integration of a host country into the global economy and the system of international division of labor based on fragmentation of production (Gereffi and Korzeniewicz: 1994, and Henderson, Decken, Hess, Coe and Yeung: 2002).Little if any research has examined the impact of FDI on the oil monarchies. Conventional expectations persisted that once they enter the post-oil phase of their histories, it will be difficult for them to uphold their political legitimacy and survive intense domestic and international pressures upon their regimes (Taeker: 1998 and O'Reilly: 1999). It has been argued that oil income enable them to pacify opponents by providing their subjects with jobs that pay well and has had detrimental effect on both economic development and political liberalization. These expectations have tended to be contradicted by actual development. The private sector has become remarkably strong in the oil monarchies and their governments were not highly resistant to change as depicted by the rentier state paradigm (Mahdavy: 1970, and Beblawi: 1987). Taking Bahrain as a case study, this thesis argues that despite its limitations as a small nation and the paucity of its oil reserves, Bahrain punched well above its weight due to its open economy and foreign direct investment. Its domestic economy is well integrated into the global market. It was able to exploit some of the opportunities that were presented by economic globalization when niches were opened or vacated within the networks of global production. It has developed energy-intensive industries (aluminium and petrochemicals) and became the major financial centre of the Middle East. Yet in spite of the government incentives, it still faces some challenges in attracting FDI in downstream activities related to oil and aluminium, which suggests that additional reforms are needed.…

This is about the nationalisation of Aminoil's operations in Kuwait, and the events leading up to it. In 1948 the Ruler of Kuwait with British assent granted the American Independent Oil Company (Aminoil) a 60-year concession to explore and exploit oil and natural gas in the Neutral Zone. Kuwait would receive a fixed royalty, and a stabilisation clause would prevent it from unilaterally annulling or altering its terms. Kuwait became independent in 1961, and the parties agreed to replace the fixed royalty with a 50/50 profit share. In 1973 they arrived at a Draft Agreement granting Kuwait a greater share. Kuwait subsequently demanded a further increase in line with OPEC's Abu Dhabi formula. In 1977, when Aminoil refused, Kuwait nationalised the Concession under Decree Law No124. This proceeded via the Kuwait Oil Company and the newly created Kuwait National Oil Company, and the Oil Minister established committees to make an inventory and assess fair compensation. In response, Aminoil initiated this Arbitration in 1978. The Arbitration Agreement was signed on 23 June 1979 by Kuwaiti Oil Minister Sheikh Ali Al Khalifa al Sabah and Aminoil President George E. Trimble. On 1 Nov, the President of the International Court of Justice appointed Paul Reuter, Law Professor at Paris University, as the Tribunal's President. The Kuwait Government nominated Professor Hamed Sultan to the Tribunal, and Aminoil Sir Gerald Fitzmaurice QC. The Tribunal held its first meeting in Paris on 19 Dec to organise proceedings, and agreed its rules in Geneva in July 1980. The Parties deposited their Memorials on 2 June 1980, Counter-Memorials on 5 Jan 1981, and Replies on 27 April. The Tribunal met with both Parties on 26 June, and determined that hearings would begin in Paris on 16 Nov. Oral hearings on behalf of both Parties went ahead on 16-17 Nov, and witnesses were heard during 7-15 Dec. The Kuwait Government claimed from Aminoil $125m in royalties and taxes, $19m in liabilities to third parties, and $5.9bn from operations and installations (the vast majority of which for damages in relation to "lost oil"), plus interest. Aminoil claimed from Kuwait $2.6bn in lost profits (failing that, $185m for physical facilities), $30m other assets and liabilities, $423m overpayments it had made to the Kuwait Govt, plus interest. The Tribunal found that the 1973 Draft Agreement and Abu Dhabi formula were valid, and that nationalisation was lawful and did not violate the stabilisation clause. In Paris on 24 March 1982, it awarded compensation to Aminoil at $180m, payable by 1 July 1982. This Final Award document explains the whole process, including introductory information, the proceedings, facts, applicable law, contractual obligations, validity of Decree Law No124, Kuwait's other counter-claims, indemnification, the award, Fitzmaurice's separate opinion on it, and identifies the members of each team.…
