“…Once the tax value reaches a certain level, the FDI inflow decreases drastically and propagates almost in parallel for each instance. This means that increases in taxes decrease FDI inflows, implying a negative relationship (similar to Gropp and Kostial, 2000; Sato, 2012; Mudenda, 2015; Abdioglu et al. , 2016).…”

“…According to Tian (2018), the government should adopt tax subsidy strategies to attract FDI, where firms are in a position of high risk and high return. Furthermore, according to Abdioglu et al (2016), net FDI inflows and taxes have countryspecific effects because the purpose of scaling the tax rate is to lure FDI to accomplish the country's economic goal. Furthermore, gross capital formation (GCF) and gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) are the second and fifth most important variables, respectively.…”

PurposeThis study aims to examine foreign direct investment (FDI) factors and develops a rational framework for FDI inflow in Western European countries such as France, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium and Austria.Design/methodology/approachData for this study were collected from the World development indicators (WDI) database from 1995 to 2018. Factors such as economic growth, pollution, trade, domestic capital investment, gross value-added and the financial stability of the country that influence FDI decisions were selected through empirical literature. A framework was developed using interpretable machine learning (IML), decision trees and three-stage least squares simultaneous equation methods for FDI inflow in Western Europe.FindingsThe findings of this study show that there is a difference between the most important and trusted factors for FDI inflow. Additionally, this study shows that machine learning (ML) models can perform better than conventional linear regression models.Research limitations/implicationsThis research has several limitations. Ideally, classification accuracies should be higher, and the current scope of this research is limited to examining the performance of FDI determinants within Western Europe.Practical implicationsThrough this framework, the national government can understand how investors make their capital allocation decisions in their country. The framework developed in this study can help policymakers better understand the rationality of FDI inflows.Originality/valueAn IML framework has not been developed in prior studies to analyze FDI inflows. Additionally, the author demonstrates the applicability of the IML framework for estimating FDI inflows in Western Europe.

PurposeThis article tackles the intersection of mothering and labor through the author's own experience as a feminist mother/manager from Istanbul, Turkey. It aims to revisit the first years of motherhood, exploring the struggle to invent a peculiar maternal subjectivity in opposition and negotiation with the patriarchal institution of motherhood, the new definition of maternal labor in a highly digital, neoliberal context and the issue of marital fairness in a dual-income heterosexual marriage.Design/methodology/approachThe article presents an autoethnographic, retrospective and introspective inquiry into the first seven years of the author's mothering experience in order to offer an in-depth exploration of the various aspects of contemporary maternal labor.FindingsThe article shows how maternal labor has shifted in nature and expanded in scope in a contemporary non-Western context. It investigates the dissolution of the spatial, temporal and sensorial boundaries between the managerial labor dedicated to the workplace, and to the family. Highlighting the similarities of the two forms of labor, the article manifests the materiality, tangibility and visibility of maternal labor.Research limitations/implicationsFurther intersectional studies shall be beneficial to redefine maternal labor in different contexts.Practical implicationsDeparting and diverting from the terms “invisible labor” and “mental load”, the article suggests a shift in terminology to stress the multifaceted medley of managerial tasks mothers undertake today.Originality/valueThe article provides an original take on maternal labor through the first-hand experience of a middle-class, professional mother from Istanbul, Turkey.

“…Enfrenta, ainda, conflitos internos oriundos dos estereótipos de maternidade intensiva (Ladge, Humberd, & Eddleston, 2017), apoiados na crença de que educar uma criança é responsabilidade, senão exclusiva, pelo menos majoritária da mulher (Martins, Leal, Schmidt, & Piccinini, 2019). Espera-se socialmente que a boa mãe direcione todo o seu tempo e energia para os filhos (Simorangkir, 2015), colocando a maternidade em primeiro lugar, e deixando em segundo plano as outras dimensões da vida, incluindo o trabalho (Akyol & Arslan, 2020;Martins et al, 2019).…”

ResumoO objetivo desse estudo foi analisar as mudanças nas experiências emocionais relacionadas à interface maternidade e trabalho de mães trabalhadoras em três momentos: durante a gravidez, licença maternidade e retorno ao trabalho. Foram entrevistadas onze mulheres nos três momentos. Os dados foram analisados por meio da análise de conteúdo categorial temática. Os resultados apontaram diferenças nas experiências emocionais ao longo do tempo. Experiências emocionais negativas (por exemplo, tristeza, medo, ansiedade) prevaleceram durante a gravidez e a licença maternidade. Ao retornar ao trabalho, as mães encontraram melhor equilíbrio entre experiências emocionais positivas (por exemplo, contentamento, satisfação) e negativas (por exemplo, preocupação). Apontou-se para um esforço mais significativo para conciliar as esferas do trabalho e da família quando do retorno ao trabalho. O estudo permitiu concluir que as mulheres primíparas vivenciaram mais experiências emocionais negativas do que positivas nesses três momentos.
