Screwdriver Plant or Independent Automobile Producer?

Andrew Mair

Chapter 4 in Honda’s Global Local Corporation, 1994, pp 87-111 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Well, right now in the auto business ‘produce here’ is an overstatement. In the typical Ohio Honda or Tennessee Nissan the high-value parts, transmissions and most engines are produced in Japan. That means US workers miss out on jobs offering not only higher pay but greater opportunity for learning and advancement.1
