Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful
introductions to major fields in the social sciences, business and
law, expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to
be accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of
the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject
areas. This Advanced Introduction provides a comprehensive guide to
the vibrant and expanding global production network (GPN) approach.
Neil M. Coe deftly explores the antecedents and theoretical
underpinnings of GPN analysis, as well as debates and controversies
surrounding the approach and its position in wider
interdisciplinary discussions. He argues overall that, during a
time of profound ongoing challenges within the global economic
system, the need for a GPN framework has never been more pressing.
Key features include: an up-to-date assessment of current debates
in the literature an integrated perspective on how GPN thinking can
aid understanding of capitalist uneven development a wide range of
sectoral and geographical examples a thorough discussion of
connections to cognate debates in the wider social sciences and
business and management studies identification of future research
challenges in the field. In short, Advanced Introduction to Global
Production Networks is an ideal introductory book for students at
both undergraduate and postgraduate levels in geography, economics
and business looking to understand the organization and dynamics of
the global economy.
