The Relationship Between Foreign Direct Investment and a Regional Industrial System: An Analysis of Interregional and Intra-Corporation Linkages of Foreign-Owned Manufacturing Establishments

Abstract

dc:description

The key to understanding the nature of a regional system lies in the functional and spatial character of the economic linkages which connect its many economic units. In the present era, the problem is further complicated by the fact that many sectors may be subdivisions of large corporations, control of which lies outside the region. This externality can be of a national or multinational character, the latter being central to this thesis.
