    Estimating the Effect of Internet Shutdowns on Inward Foreign Direct Investment
    (2025-07-02)
    Alexander Tonn  
    Do government induced internet shutdowns have a negative impact on foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows? Internet shutdowns are on the rise and have been used by governments to limit communication and suppress political dissent. While recent research in political science has started to investigate topics around internet shutdowns, the broader economic consequences are less widely understood. Using an econometric panel data approach this study analyses the effect of internet shutdowns on the flow of inward FDI for a set of 57 countries over the period 2016-2022.

    This panel discusses how global demographic shifts—aging populations in the Global North and rapid youth expansion in the Global South—as well as generational and technological change, are not only transforming international business activity but also fundamentally altering how international business knowledge is produced and who participates in its creation. Although research often addresses demographic changes as they affect firms and labor markets, the panel highlights the underexplored impact of these forces on academic careers, mobility, and expectations within the field of international business and management. The panel brings together diverse scholars to examine how demographic divergence and socio-technological change directly shape the structure, opportunities, and challenges of academia. By focusing on intersecting trends—academic labor markets, mobility, rising research hubs, and changing career norms—the panel critically analyzes how demographic structures impose constraints and create possibilities for scholars in the region. The ultimate argument is that these shifts will decisively influence the field's development.
