摘要
Within the new growth framework, this paper attempts to investigate the performance of foreign direct investment, i.e. how efficient FDI as one of the factor inputs in an economy has been utilised. In the empirical analyses, an input-oriented distance function approach is employed to estimate the technical efficiency of FDI in China's coastal regions over the period 1983-1995.
