At the same time, however, they also implemented or tightened Investment Screening Mechanisms (ISMs), which empower governments to restrict foreign takeovers, especially in strategic sectors. ISMs are an understudied phenomenon in the International Political Economy literature. This research note describes patterns in the evolution of foreign investment screening policies and suggests a research agenda for analyzing these patterns. After defining ISMs and establishing the puzzle of rising investment screening in conjunction with rising efforts to attract FDI, we present a newly coded dataset on ISMs in OECD countries from 2007-2021, examining the evolution of seven key features of investment screening over time. Next, we set an agenda for future research by suggesting three explanations for their recent evolution in the shadow of rising Chinese investment: the role of bottom-up backlashes to economic globalization; elite-driven foreign policy arguments about the increasingly blurred lines between national and economic security in the information economy; and geopolitical transformations that have challenged key features of the post-war liberal order.","PeriodicalId":288317,"journal":{"name":"International Political Economy: Globalization eJournal","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115471003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Exchange platforms are characterized by having “sides”. The simplest have two sides: buyers and sellers in the case of transaction platforms and senders and recipients of messages in the case of communication platforms. However, many exchange platforms have three, four or more sides. The purpose of this chapter is to place digital exchange platforms in the same theoretical framework as standards-based and logistical platforms. I first define exchange platforms and show how their value can be represented using value structure maps and equations. I then describe the main problem facing platform sponsors: coordinating sides to share the same flow of transactions or messages. Modern digital exchange platforms make use of five critical technologies: (1) crowdsourcing; (2) peer production; (3) search and ad placement; (4) dynamic pricing; and (5) data analysis and prediction. The first two technologies, crowdsourcing and peer production, dramatically expanded the ecosystems of exchange platforms, and are the focus of this chapter. The last three have become the key to value capture by platform sponsors and are treated in the next chapter.","PeriodicalId":288317,"journal":{"name":"International Political Economy: Globalization eJournal","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127966923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I begin by describing the three core technological processes that lie at the heart of all digital exchange platforms: (1) search and ad placement; (2) dynamic pricing; and (3) data analysis and prediction. These processes are carried out automatically and at high speed by computerized algorithms. The algorithms consist of steps, all of which are essential to the successful completion of a transaction or transmission of a message. However, bottlenecks are inevitable any synchronized multi-step flow process. The platform sponsor’s first responsibility is thus to resolve bottlenecks in its core processes when and where they arise. One of an exchange platform’s critical core processes is to generate predictions as to what the user would like to see and/or purchase. Better predictions speed up the flow and reduce the unproductive time users spend on the platform. Thus to be competitive today, platform sponsors must have the ability to gather data, generate predictions and test hypotheses within time intervals measured in milliseconds. Predictions can be improved by tracking individuals’ behavior online, but only at the cost of reducing their privacy. The inevitable tension between performance and privacy has yet to be resolved. The chapter goes on to discuss how platform sponsors can “lock-in” members of an ecosystem through a combination of visible instructions, data storage, and specific inertia. It concludes by describing successful and unsuccessful attempts to disintermediate exchange platforms.","PeriodicalId":288317,"journal":{"name":"International Political Economy: Globalization eJournal","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123485959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Time series data has collected from Pakistan covering the time from 1990- 2013. A time-series Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model is used to establish the long run and the short run relationship between globalization and economic growth. Error Correction Model (ECM) is also used to check the short-run and long-run relationships among the globalization and economic growth. To determine the directional relationship, the Granger Causality test is being employed. To check the stability of the model CUSUM and CUSUMQ tests employed. The conclusions of this study showed a significantly negative association between Economic Globalization and Economic Growth. On the other hand, there is a significantly positive association between Political Globalization and Economic Growth. While the relationship between Social Globalization and Economic Growth has founded a significantly positive. However, our research paper provides simultaneous valuable information for policymakers to remove the red tape barriers and focus on one window operation.","PeriodicalId":288317,"journal":{"name":"International Political Economy: Globalization eJournal","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131488753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
