Abstract

Human relations in the modern world are framed by institutions that regulate the actions of agents by previously defined and recognized rules of engagement. In this context, international trade is regulated by laws that facilitate the exchange of goods and services and is there where the state intervenes to ensure the protection of its national interests and to encourage foreign investment with the certainty that their capital will be taken care of as if it was its own. This article pretends, under a descriptive approach, to understand the influence of the domestic legal framework on the levels of foreign investment entering the country.
