报告摘要:In this report, we first propose a theoretical model and derive hypotheses about the relationship between cultural diversity and foreign direct investment (FDI). We then test these hypotheses by applying econometric methods to a dataset of 230 Chinese cities covering the period of 2000-2014. We find that cultural diversity and FDI absorption are negatively correlated. The main mechanism we establish is that cultural diversity impedes human capital development which in turn reduces FDI absorption. However, this negative relationship disappears gradually over time. In addition, we also find that there are threshold and spatial spillover effects. Our research not only enriches the theory of FDI location, but also has implications for FDI policy-making.
