Changes in the dynamics of economic activities since the last
decades of the 20th century have yielded major changes in the
composition of industries and the division of labor and production
across different regions of the world. Despite these shifts in the
global economy, some industries have remained competitive even
without relocating their operations overseas. Industries and Global
Competition examines how and why the specificities of certain
industries and firms determined their choice of location and
competitiveness. This volume identifies the major drivers of this
process and explains why some firms and industries moved to other
parts of world while others did not. Relocation was not the sole
determinant of the success or failure of firms and industries.
Indeed some were able to reinvent themselves at their original
location and build new competitive advantages. The path that each
industry or firm took varied. This book argues that the specific
characteristics of each industry defined the conditions of
competitiveness and provide a wide range of cases as illustrations.
Aimed at scholars, researchers and acadmeics in the fields of
business history, international business and related disciplines

How and why did the specificities of certain industries and firms
