This thesis investigates the dynamics between firms’ shifting motives for engaging in foreign direct investments (FDIs) and the experiential knowledge acquired from increased experience and establishment in foreign markets. An embedded case study was performed on the multinational company Duni Group, drawing upon insights from semi-structured interviews with representatives from the case company.
The Resource Curse is a theory which suggests that countries with an abundance of natural resources are prone to experience slower growth than resource scarce countries.

The Arab Spring broke out in the MENA-region in 2011 in the guise of a series of mass protests demanding political and regime change.

Denna hypotes stämde däremot inte in i den svenska kontexten, då regeringspartierna generellt ökade i stöd medan Sverigedemokraterna minskade
