Depending upon the preferences of the host country, we find that expropriation can occur because of either desperation or opportunism. We show that under reasonable assumptions, increased investment makes expropriation less likely to occur and that the level of investment chosen by atomistic foreign investors may be nonoptimal."^^; "1992 Winter"; "2019-12-11T14:41:10.373495412+00:00"^^; "https://doi.org/10.21034/qr.1612"; ; "Mon Dec 16 17:27:36 2019"; "Article"; "220", "145"; "Quarterly review (Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis.
