Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article provides a systematic and comprehensive review of the existing empirical literature on FDI and carbon dioxide emissions for 2000-2021. The review covers articles published in the Web of Science and SCOPUS, provides a content analysis of their study, the findings show that it as a more popular cross-disciplinary research area in recent years. The field (a) emphasizes quantitative analysis, relevant modelling through data, and causal research design; (b) focuses on single-country studies, mainly conducted in Asia and Europe; (c) tends to use relatively large samples; and (d) uses relatively complex models for analysis. This report provides guidelines for researchers to focus on the relationship between FDI and Carbon Dioxide Emissions and suggestions for potential new research topics.
