Agri‐Food Multinational Enterprises
The agroindustrial sector is composed of segments such as agriculture, food, beverage and tobacco processing, research and development (R&D), and retailing. Although agroindustries are dominated by small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) worldwide, multinational enterprises (MNEs) play an important role in these substantial industries. There has been a major transformation of the geographic pattern of agricultural foreign direct investment (FDI…
Is the Pro-Network Bias Justified
The academic literature, policy makers, and international organizations often emphasize the value of networks that, allegedly, may contribute to subcontractor upgrading, innovation, and economic welfare. By contrast, it is difficult to assess whether engagement in production outsourcing networks also accrues some advantages to outsourcers (contractors). To research differences between these organizations and vertically integrated organizations, w…
Spatial patterns of adoption of just‐in‐time manufacturing
Just-in-Time Manufacturing Systems, Subcontracting and Geographic Proximity
Holl A., Pardo R. and Rama R. Just-in-Time manufacturing systems, subcontracting and geographic proximity, Regional Studies. The paper studies the spatial extent of subcontracting linkages for a sample of medium-sized and large Spanish manufacturing firms operating in the automotive and electronics industries. In particular, it analyses how Just-in-Time (JIT) organization of production is related to the spatial pattern of these sourcing relations…
Emerging Districts Facing Structural Reform
In this paper we identify some sources of resilience in regional production districts (RPDs) faced with external shocks. We analyze Madrid's electronics district, which has managed to survive and prosper even after the turbulent period of the early 1990s when Spanish telecommunications services and product markets were liberalized. The study of structural changes alone in RPDs as they respond to external shocks may not sufficiently account for ot…
Subcontracting Networks in Industrial Districts
RAMA R., FERGUSON D. and MELERO A. (2003) Subcontracting networks in industrial districts: the electronics industries of Madrid , Reg. Studies 37 , 71- 88. With the recent introduction of industrial district typologies, the definition of "industrial district' has been extended beyond the classical "flexibly specialized' districts popularized in Italian case studies to include "hub- and-spoke' districts, technology districts and others. Few studie…
Outsourcing, R&D and the Pattern of Intra-metropolitan Location
The relationship between intra-metropolitan location, research and development (R&D) and the outsourcing of production is analysed to determine differences in, and the supportive character of, intra-metropolitan areas for high-technology production. Madrid's electronics industries have shown a remarkable resilience, in the face of extensive economic restructuring and the change in trade regimes that has accompanied continental integration. Much o…
Latin America and the geographical priorities of multinational agro-industries
La política proteccionista mexicana
En un esfuerzo por divulgar los resultados preliminares de la investigación sobre "El proteccionismo en México y su influencia en la distribución intersectorial e interregional del ingreso", se publicaron dos artículos, uno titulado "La protección nominal en México y su medición para 1970" y otro "La protección efectiva en México en 1970". Sin embargo, en vista de que estos dos artículos, además del análisis de los resultados contienen una descri…
