Beschreibung

Articulations of Capital offers an accessible, grounded, yet theoretically-sophisticated account of the geographies of global production networks, value chains, and regional development in post-socialist Eastern and Central Europe. * Proposes a new theorization of global value chains as part of a conjunctural economic geography * Develops a set of conceptual and theoretical arguments concerning the regional embeddedness of global production * Draws on longitudinal empirical research from over 20 years in the Bulgarian and Slovakian apparel industries * Makes a major intervention into the debate over the economic geographies of European integration and EU enlargement

Rezensionen

-- Petr Pavlínek, Professor of Geography, University of Nebraska at Omaha, USA
'Articulations of Capital is an intellectually refreshing and stimulating analysis of the shifts in the global apparel industry and its regional and local manifestations in East-Central Europe. Pickles and Smith excel in a theoretically and conceptually rich but empirically grounded critical approach that challenges some widely held assumptions about the contemporary apparel industry, postsocialism and East-Central Europe.'
in selected East Central European regional economies. In this way, the authors have eschewed the snapshot approach in most studies of inter-firm industrial governance and shed much better empirical light on the critical issue of industrial upgrading.' -- Henry Wai-chung Yeung, Professor of Economic Geography and Co-Director of the GPN@NUS Centre, National University of Singapore
'This book presents a well grounded and historically contextualized analysis of the political economy of regional transformation in a changing world of apparel global production networks. I particularly like its focus on "actually existing transitions"
