Preferred term

global production and innovation networks  

Definition

  • The emergence of global corporate networks that integrate dispersed production, engineering, product development, and research activities across geographic borders poses new challenges and opportunities for global studies. The challenge is to trace and decipher the increasingly complex forms of these networks that have expanded well beyond the traditional centers of the global economy in the United States, the European Union, and Japan.
