Description
Summary:The aim of this text is to reflect and to define a position on the key aspects of the debate on the transnational movements of productive capacity. The focus is on those that present a methodological interest and a greater strategic significance, all these from the perspective of the developed economies. This research focuses on the delocalization dynamic taking into account analytical keys alternative to the ones provided by conventional economy. This paper is organized into four sections. The first raises some conceptual and methodological questions that allow defining the phenomenon of relocalization; the second relates to the tools used to assess its magnitude; the third discusses the relevance of labor and non-labor costs as explanatory causes of its growth; and the fourth and last analyses the costs and benefits of the relocalization process and its distribution.
