Délocalisations et emploi: faux débats et vrais enjeux

Innovations, 2001, vol. 13, issue 1, 87-110

Abstract: Since 1993, threats of industrial delocalizations hang over French debates in economic policy. This paper tries to prove that this constraint has been indeed overstated because delocalizations were not well-defined ? often confused with some other empirical events (FDI, international sub-contracting...) inherent to international integration of firms ?, and because the competition with low-wages countries were mainly analysed with classical theories of international trade. Il concludes that delocalizations served as an instrument of wage austerity measures and that institutionalist and evolutionary approaches are theorically relevant in international industrial economics.
