The book "Agencies for Investment Development and Targeting Policies" by Ariana Sacroisky offers a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and opportunities arising from foreign investment in Argentina. It highlights Argentina's experiences in the 1990s when the country was among the main recipients of foreign direct investment in Latin America. Despite this positive development, it is noted that the outcomes for Argentina were not consistently beneficial. The book suggests developing targeted public policies to achieve national development goals. By comparing with the strategies of countries like Singapore, Malaysia, and the Czech Republic, valuable lessons for Argentina are derived. The existing literature on the impacts of foreign direct investment is also discussed, and the possibilities for policy design within the framework of international norms are explored. The institutional framework and the interactions between foreign and national companies are also analyzed in depth.
