Technological Spillovers From FDI : Evidence from Tunisian Manufacturing Firms
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in developing countries is expected to foster technology transfer from foreign-owned to local firms.

By modelling knowledge capital as a function of own investment in R\&D and spillovers, I can c...
