Globalization and Poverty in Senegal: A Worst Case Scenario? (2011, background): “In addition, developing countries are said to benefit considerably from the inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI) through direct growth effects and a variety of growth spillover effects 2 (Blalock and Gertler, 2008; Borenzstein et al., 1998; Choe, 2003; Hansen and Rand, 2006; Xu, 2000).”

Why is there a lack of evidence on knowledge spillovers from foreign direct investment (2018, positive): “Blomström, Lipsey and Zejan (1994), Xu (2000) and Gorodnichenko, Svejnar and Terrell (2015) all claimed that FDI spillovers are stronger in more developed host countries.”
Conditioning the “Resource Curse”: Globalization, Human Capital, and Growth in Oil-Rich Nations (2011, background): “4 years of male secondary school achievement) but that most developing countries do not reach this threshold to benefit in such a way from foreign direct investment (Xu, 2000).”

(1998), De Mello (1999), Xu (2000), Mastromarco and Ghosh (2009) and Iyer et al. (2008) conclude that FDI increases an economy’s productive efficiency.”
National innovation systems, capabilities and economic development (2008, result): “It also concords with previous findings by Xu (2000) and Dunning and Narula, (2000) that poor countries due to lack of absorptive capacity are much less likely than other countries to benefit from foreign direct investments.”
The relationship between trade, FDI and economic growth in Tunisia: An application of the autoregressive distributed lag model (2014, background): “For some countries FDI and trade can even negatively affect the economic growth (Balasubramanyam et al., 1996; Borensztein et al., 1998; Lipsey, 2000; De Mello, 1999; Xu, 2000).”
What do we know about geographical knowledge spillovers and regional growth?: A survey of the literature (2006, background): “However, LUTZ (2000), TYBOUT (2000) and XU (2000) argue that knowledge diffusion within multinational companies is often confined to countries with relatively high income levels.”
Foreign trade regimes and the FDI–Growth Nexus: a case study of Thailand (2003, background): “However, there is convincing evidence that the growth enhancing effect from FDI seems to vary from country to country and for some countries FDI can even adversely affect the growth process [Balasubramanyam et al., 1996; Borensztein et al., 1998; De Mello, 1999; Lipsey, 2000; Xu, 2000].”
Lessons from NAFTA for Latin America and the Caribbean (2004, background): “Second, we provide estimates of the impact of NAFTA on the rate of convergence between Mexico’s GDP per capita and that of the United States. Third, we follow Fuss (1999) in applying cointegration analysis to see whether there is an observable process of income convergence between the United States ”
