这篇论文调查决定外国生产投资的工业分发的力量。它在吸引外国投资到生产工业强调工业凝块和工业连接的重要性。在 1999-2004 的时期期间在北京为二位的生产工业使用面板数据,这研究发现有强壮的 intra 工业的连接的地理上聚结的工业对外国投资确实吸引人。以前的外国投资导致了外国投资的当前的工业集中。投资者也赞成资本密集型、技术集中的工业,并且他们趋于被吸引到最有利、出口的工业,但是与高真实的劳动费用和高入口障碍避免工业。拥有比较优点的竞争本地工业为吸引外国投资是批评的。工业簇的存在当然提高一个城市的优美到外国投资。
This paper investigates the forces that determine the industrial distribution of foreign manufacturing investment. It highlights the importance of industrial agglomeration and industrial linkage in attracting foreign investment to manufacturing industries. Using panel data for two-digit manufacturing industries in Beijing during the period of 1999-2004, this study finds that geographically agglomerated industries with strong intra-industrial linkages are indeed attractive to foreign investment. Previous foreign investment has led to the current industrial concentration or foreign investment. Investors also favor capital-intensive and technology-intensive industries, and they tend to be attracted to the most profitable and exporting industries, but avoid industries with high real labor costs and high entry barriers. Competitive local industries that possess comparative advantages are critical for attracting foreign investment. The existence of industrial clusters certainly enhances a city's attractiveness to foreign investment.
