Global Strategies Compared: Firms, Markets and Regions

Dieter Rehfeld

European Planning Studies, 2001, vol. 9, issue 1, 29-46

Abstract: This paper explores the disembedding effects of globalization upon regional social ties as proposed in the relevant literature. It then asks questions about the limitations of such disembedding in relation to the prospects for new social movements. The analysis proposed offers an understanding of globalization as a societal, historical process. It shows that firms adopt diverse and distinctive strategies for going global which structure the overall process in question. These developments have organizational and spatial-regional effects which create tensions in the globlization process.
