  • Foreign direct investment and fundamental workers' rights
    Busse, Matthias
    The main focus of the article is the link between foreign direct investment and fundamental workers' rights. It discusses how fundamental workers' rights, sometimes called core labour standards, can ... influence foreign direct investment flows and empirical tests that linkage. The results show that, contrary to the conventional wisdom that foreign direct investment will predominately be attracted by countries with lower rights, improved workers' rights are in fact positively associated with foreign direct investment inflows. Concerns about "social dumping" or "a race to the bottom" with respect to workers' rights appear to be mistaken. This result even holds for poor developing countries.
