Various studies in the past have examined the effect of foreign direct investment on economic growth, the key basic assumption common to these papers is that economic growth is a good proxy for welfare of both developed and developing countries. However, research on the influence of foreign direct investment on an expanded conception of socio-economic progress such as human development (measured by the human development index) is absent. This research paper presents the literature on foreign direct investment (FDI) and social sectors (health & education) development in the context of developing economies.
