The issues are analysed mainly within Dunning's "OLI" theoretical frame work for FDI, supplemented by theories of transactions costs and international trade. The evolution of China's FDI policies are analysed to provide a general policy background for the study of FDI in China. Shows that China's gradual reform approach has achieved substantial progress within a relatively short period. However, compared with APEC's investment-related principles, China's current FDI policy needs to be further improved, particularly in respect of transparency and national treatment. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Economics, 1998
