This book brings together the key works on the global factory - a
unique approach to the modern global economy that focuses on the
orchestrating role of key multinational firms that control an
integrated international network of independent firms. This
analysis is conducted at global system level, at the level of
global value chains and for individual firms. These three levels
represent consistent, nested approaches to the analysis of pressing
issues of the modern international economy. The Global Factory
examines the internalisation theory of the multinational enterprise
as it applies to global interfirm networks, and pays particular
attention to multinational firms from emerging countries. It
examines the governance and performance of global factories, their
internationalisation and knowledge management strategies and the
potential for multinational firms to address societal failures. The
role of technology, the use of tax havens by Chinese multinationals
and the division of entrepreneurial labour between global factories
and smaller local firms are all explored as fascinating aspects of
the overarching theory. This is an essential point of reference on
Buckley's work on the global factory for academics and students of
business, as well as managers of multinational firms and public
policy makers.
