• When does FDI matter? The roles of local institutions and ethnic origins of FDI (2013, background): “On the other hand, the ‘‘pollution haven’’ hypothesis suggests that due to the profitdriven nature of FDI, foreign investors are motivated to transfer outdated technologies to places where environmental regulations are less stringent, causing greater pollution to the environment (Leonard, 1988; Low ”
• Determinants of Industrial Innovation in China: Evidence From its Recent Economic Census (2010, background): “…(Blomstrom, 1986; Blomstrom and Persson, 1983; Blomstrom and Wolff, 1994; Caves, 1974; Globerman, 1979; Hu and Jefferson, 2002; Liu and Wang, 2003; Liu, 2002; Tian, 2007) have been considered the most important sources of innovation, since most such countries lack the capital and the talents to…”
• 30 Years of foreign direct investment to China: An interdisciplinary literature review (2010, background): “Thus, the positive influence of FDI on productivity growth in China’s special economic zones (Liu, 2002 [179]) and nationwide (Buckley et al., 2002 [156]; Wei and Liu, 2006 [295]) act as confirmatory studies to the specific policies implemented by the Chinese government and as advised by…”
• Is foreign direct investment productive? A case study of the regions of Vietnam (2014, unknown): “Liu (2002) and Liu and Wang (2003) consider the effect of FDI on technology transfer in China but they do not consider the impact of spillover effects.”
• Spillovers of technology transfer from FDI: the case of Estonia (2004, background): “Liu (2002) investigates the correlation between FDI presence and productivity growth in China using industry-level data, and finds a positive and significant effect of spillovers for the overall sample and for the sub-sample of domestic firms.”
• Perspectives on multinational enterprises in emerging economies (2004, background): “Liu (2002) in China and Sinani and Meyer (2004) in Estonia find positive effects, whereas other studies find negative effects in Bulgaria, Romania (Konings, 2001) and the Czech Republic (Djankov and Hoekman, 2000).”
• Technology spillovers from foreign direct investment in Vietnam: horizontal or vertical spillovers? (2011, background): “Other studies that have found positive spillovers are Blomstrom and Persson (1983) for Mexican manufacturing industry, Blomstrom and Sjöholm (1999) for Indonesian manufacturing sectors and Liu (2002) for Chinese manufacturing industries.”
• When and where does foreign direct investment generate positive spillovers? A meta-analysis (2009, background): “Liu (2002) in China, Yudaeva et al. (2003) in Russia and Sinani and Meyer (2004) in Estonia find positive effects, while other studies find negative effects in Bulgaria, Romania (Konings, 2001) and the Czech Republic (Djankov and Hoekman, 2000).”
• Foreign Direct Investment Inflows and the Industrialization of African Countries (2015, background): “Although the primary objective of Liu (2002) was not to analyze the impact of FDI on industrialization in China, the dependent variable is the value added generated by firms, and as such, the study can be considered as a contribution to understanding this issue.”
• Foreign Direct Investment, Vertical Integration, and Local Suppliers: Evidence from the Polish Dairy Sector (2004, result): “The conclusions from these studies are mixed: some studies find positive effects (Hu & Jefferson, 2002; Liu, 2002), and others, no significant effect (Kokko, Tansini, & Zejan, 1996; Konings, 2001), and yet other studies conclude that the impact on local firms is negative (Aitken & Harrison, 1999).”
