During the writing process of this textbook, three key features were emphasized:
First, adhering to the "three combinations." This means the textbook is closely linked to the current state of international investment, incorporates the latest research findings in the field of international investment, and aligns with China's actual conditions. While citing the latest papers, books, and materials, it independently reflects on important issues in the field of international investment and proposes its own perspectives.
Second, emphasizing case studies. As a textbook, it must focus on the application of theory and requires case studies to help students better understand the concepts. Each chapter selects two cases and provides several analysis and reflection questions for teachers and students to use.
Third, arranging a bilingual glossary (Chinese-English) in the appendix to facilitate students in better mastering the relevant concepts of international investment.
This book can be used as a teaching material for undergraduate students in economics and management-related majors in higher education institutions, as well as for cadre training purposes.
