the role of international terrorism on investment movement in syria and Jordan (2001-
2015), The study sought to solve the research problem related to the relationship between
the phenomenon of terrorism and the FDI movement in the Syrian Arab Repu
blic and the
Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan during the period 2001-2015, using several approaches. On
the other hand, in an attempt to read the variables of study over time based on indicators of
terrorism and indicators of investment, these indicators are determined by Pearson
correlation coefficient, which reveals the direction and degree of relationship between
variables. The study concluded that there is a correlative relationship between terrorism
and foreign investment. This relationship is negative, ie, the higher the rate of terrorist
operations, the lower the foreign direct investment. The researcher concluded that
investment in the Arab countries is one of the most flagrant countries affected by terrorist
operations.
Given the growing interest and the race between countries to foreign direct
investment, especially after the financial policies and recent developments and global
economic crisis in the Arab region, and the crisis in the euro zone and the recession
in the
global investment market, with the moderns developments in foreign investment trends, all
countries and especially developing countries seek to provide favorable conditions for
attracting foreign direct investment, and Algeria, like other developing countries, are not
immune to these changes, which calls for the adoption of policies and reforms that create
the appropriate economic environment and adopt a policy of open door to foreign
investment so that it matches these developments in order to benefit from its advantages
and strengthen their competitiveness in an open world trade and foreign investment and at
the end engage in the circle of economic growth and achieve sustainable development in
general. This paper aims to find out the measures by which the Algeria seeks to enable
foreign direct investment towards sustainability, as sustainable development is a
prerequisite for the realization of justice and equity in the distribution of development
gains and wealth between generations.
