| The main argument of this thesis is that generally accepted legal principles and standards regulating FDI in Canada serve as a good example and model for the revitalization and recovery of Albania and Croatia. By analyzing the Canadian domestic legislation and bilateral investment treaties (BITs) negotiated by Canada in the area of FDI and international trade, on the one hand, and by comparing these instruments to the current situation involving FDI developments in Albania and Croatia, on the other hand, suggestions and recommendations for reform of FDI-related laws and BITs in Albania and Croatia will be offered, based upon the theoretical and practical approaches to these issues and the effectiveness and the convenience of their implementation. |
