Research Methodology-
This section of a dissertation consists of information about the different methodologies and
approaches that is used to undertake an inquiry and tend to help investigator in performing the
research study in a systematic manner while aiding him in accomplishing its aim. It too has a
crucial part of study because with the aid of different methodologies, investigator would be
able to conduct study consistently in a proper and organized manner2.
Introduction-
The research methodology is a chapter of the research section that plays a very essential
part. All the hypothesis is developed in the study are being tested and the credibility is find in
this section. The Research methodology is define as a systematic process which is used by the
tester to identify, analysis and construe data about the topic which is chosen by the investigator.
In the research paper it is written so that cogency and the reliability of the hypothesis can be
acquired in the investigation. Basically the methodology part answer the two chief question that
is stuck in the mind of examiner about the data.

Research philosophy:
The very first layer of the onion framework is research philosophy. It is define as the set of
belief and principle about the way in which information about the topic need to be collect and
evaluate. Theses are of three type that is Ontology, Epistemology and Apology. Further the
epistemology is divided into parts that is positivism, Interpretivism and realism. Positivism is
used when the factual information is to be gained so that interpretation can be made on the
quantitative data. This research is using the interpretivism philosophy as it best suits in this
case3.
Research approach:
This section is used to test the validity of the hypothesis that is made. They are of two type
deductive and inductive approach. Deductive approach is used when data is in the form of
quantity and inductive approach is used when it is of qualitative nature. Further the deductive
approach test the validity of the existence theory and hypothesis that is made before the data
collected and inductive approach is used when new theories are to be developed and ten there
validity are to be made. This investigation is using the inductive approach.
Research strategy:
There are so many strategy that can be used by the investigator to gather the data from the
audience. Some of them are survey, action research, experiments, case study and literature
review. Survey is selected when data need to be obtain from the practices and situation
through use of Questionnaire and interview. It is using the literature review method of
research.
Research choice:
It is that part of the onion framework which is used to see what type of information need to be
choose. Mono method , Multi method and Mixed method are the type of choice which is
given to the examiner so that choice can be made about data type. Mono method is used when
data a single kind of data is to be chosen that is either quantitative or qualitative. The data
here used in qualitative.

Data analysis:
Data analysis is that part of the section which is used to measure and evaluate the data that is
elected by the examiner on the topic. Frequency distribution and thematic re the two method
for analyzing the data. Frequency distribution is used when the data is in the form of numbers
and is based on quantitative methodology. This research is using the thematic data analysis.
Research ethics:
While conducting the research and collecting the data there are some values and ethics that
need to be followed by the collector so that they cannot harm anybody felling and emotions.
There are certain norms, values, belief and morale are been designed to prepare the report so
that transparency and validity can be maintained. The researcher should follow this so that
society cannot get hurt. Some of the ethics that need to be followed by them are honesty,
integrity, objectivity, openness, respect to intellectual property and many more4.
Time Horizon:
Time horizon is one of the important methodologies as time is explained as one of the
essential factors to accomplish activities and accomplish objectives of dissertation. This horizon
defines the required time duration to complete the work of dissertation. Time horizon is given
into two kinds that are the longitudinal and cross-sectional. Investigator has selected cross-
sectional time horizon as it clearly highlights the time duration to collect the information. The
current dissertation is related about understanding the effect of mental illness while committing
any type of crime in the country. This require a lot of time because the investigator has to do
interview on one on one basis. So, the rime required in this is longer period5.

type of data. The qualitative data would explain about the exact condition of the international
organization. The use of the journals and magazines would aid the investigator to do an effective
research of the topic. While doing the research there are so many limitation that are being faced
by he researcher some of them are lack of knowledge about the topic, the cost incurred was high,
thee were limited resource so that appropriate data can be get without any difficulty and lack of
openness. One of the major limitation is data collection process done by the investigator.
Literature review
Introduction-
The literature review is the deep study of the topic. In this, different authors are being taken
into consideration with respect to the selected topic by the researcher. The researcher is using
the article to demonstrate the key understanding of the concept. In this section of dissertation,
the critical analysis is being done on the selected topic of research by the investigator.
Moreover, the research uses different journals, articles to understand the research topic more
deeply. It too explains about the advantages and disadvantages of the chosen topic. This also

research with various points of view. Nearly, 1,075 documents with respect to Foreign direct
investment research were collected. Along with this, a strong biblio metric analysis was carried
out by the aid of Biblio metrix software. This would also review of approaches. The Bibliometrix
software has discovered the leading researchers, abstract structure, and thematic development of
the FDI-EG research from the past few years. At the same time, prospecting the literature would
aid in making a content analysis which is the most influential document analysis. This also
includes the co-authorship analysis along with the citation and co-citation analysis. Moreover,
the FDI-EG research is being focused on the technology and firm execution, research modelling,
and theoretical inquiry of the research7.
To determine about the impact of FDI and internal laws of Africa and India on international
