The paradigm of mass production, based on a long series of similar
goods, the integrated industrial corporation, and the big factory,
has given way to radically new forms of organizing industrial
production, based principally around the need to foster continuous
redesign of products and processes in an attempt to continually
keep ahead of potential competitors. These changes, which are
designed to engender continuous adaptive learning in production
systems, require considerable organizational flexibility. The mass
production systems constructed in the early post-war period
foundered in the face of competitors who were able to fully exploit
these new techniques. "Pathways to Industrialization and Regional
Development" brings together the principal theoreticians on these
subjects in the principal countries where the debate has unfolded.
The papers include investigations into the organization of
production, the economics of production, technological change, the
international and regional consequences of the new production
paradigms, and the possible pathways to industrial and regional
development in the 1990s.
