Abstract

Après la dissolution de l'Union soviétique en 1992, la Fédération de Russie a rapidement mis en place des mesures de réforme économique et des programmes de privatisation, achevés pour la plupart dès 1994. En dépit de la création d'un secteur privé de base, de nombreuses réformes structurelles sont restées incomplètes, limitant les entrées d'investissement étranger. Depuis la crise financière de 1998, la Russie connaît une phase de stabilisation et montre désormais des signes de reprise, favorisés par les conditions économiques externes. Un nouveau programme de réforme économique a été introduit au milieu de l'année 2000, qui promet de rationaliser de nombreuses structures étatiques et législatives, et de réorganiser des pouvoirs fédéraux et régionaux afin de mettre en place un environnement de concurrence moderne au sein d'un espace économique unifié. L'investissement étranger sera vital à la renaissance économique de la Russie et le gouvernement russe a relevé le défi qui consiste à améliorer le cadre légal et réglementaire afin d'attirer des flux d'investissement susceptibles d'accroître les capacités de production et de travail ainsi que les infrastructures du pays. Le rythme et les progrès de ces réformes sont suivis avec intérêt à travers le monde. Aussi, cette analyse de l'évolution de la situation en matière d'investissement étranger dans la Fédération de Russie vient-elle à point nommé. Elle montre quels sont les problèmes à régler pour rendre le climat plus propice à l'investissement, comme par exemple la protection inadéquate des droits contractuels et de propriété des investisseurs. Enfin, et ce n'est pas là la moindre de ses qualités, cette publication présente un ensemble de conclusions et de recommandations de nature à aider les politiques à créer un environnement plus favorable à l'investissement, tant domestique qu'étranger.

Abstract

The main objective of this 2002 book is to show that behind the bewildering diversity of historical speculative episodes it is possible to find hidden regularities, thus preparing the way for a unified theory of market speculation. Speculative bubbles require the study of various episodes in order for a comparative perspective to be obtained and the analysis developed in this book follows a few simple but unconventional ideas. Investors are assumed to exhibit the same basic behavior during speculative episodes whether they trade stocks, real estate, or postage stamps. The author demonstrates how some of the basic concepts of dynamical system theory, such as the notions of impulse response, reaction times and frequency analysis, play an instrumental role in describing and predicting speculative behavior. This book will serve as a useful introduction for students of econophysics, and readers with a general interest in economics as seen from the perspective of physics.

Abstract

Foreign direct investment (FDI) is an integral part of an open and effective international economic system and a major catalyst to development. Yet, the benefits of FDI do not accrue automatically and evenly across countries, sectors and local communities. National policies and the international investment architecture play an important part in attracting FDI to a larger number of developing countries. It is the responsibility of the host countries to put in place a transparent, broad and enabling investment policy environment and to reinforce the human and institutional potentials necessary for such an environment. With most FDI flows originating in OECD countries, developed countries can contribute to advancing this agenda. They can facilitate the access of developing countries to international markets and technology, and ensure policy coherence for development more generally; encourage non-OECD countries to integrate further into rules-based international frameworks for investment; actively promote the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, together with other elements of the OECD Declaration on International Investment; and share with non-members the peer review-based approach to building investment capacity. This publication provides a comprehensive review of the issues related to the impact of FDI on development as well as to the policies needed to maximise the benefits.
