Capital Xenophobia II


$9.95


In 1984, the Centre for Independent Studies published Wolfgang Kasper’s

Capital Xenophobia: Australia’s Controls of Foreign Investment. Kasper’s Policy Monograph lamented Australia’s abandonment, from the mid-1960s, of its traditional open-door policy to foreign direct investment. Kasper’s work made an influential contribution to the debate over foreign investment at a time when Australia had just embarked upon a major liberalisation of its economy, which included a progressive liberalisation of controls over foreign investment. This trend has continued well into the 2000s, with the federal government recently removing statutory limits on foreign ownership of Australian media assets.
