Abstract

This article discusses recent global trends in implementing economic controls framed around national security concerns, focusing specifically on investment controls. It discusses how legislation should be carefully drafted taking into consideration the specific context of individual national innovation systems and how similar approaches to this legislation from other jurisdictions might not be
strategically applicable in the context of newly industrialized nations.
