Knowledge Transfer in the Automobile Industry (eBook, ePUB)

Global-Local Production Networks

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The book provides a detailed theoretical framework and a case study on how FDI in the form of knowledge transfer from overseas MNEs contributes to the upgrading of regional manufacturing clusters. Although regional clusters have been the subject of many books, this book is one of the few that explicitly links regional clusters to global networks. It explains how being part of global networks can both facilitate and hinder the development of a regional cluster.
