Description

Explore the complex dynamics of export-led industrialization with Assembling for Development by Routledge. This academic study examines how foreign investment and technology drive economic changes across borders. Focusing on Mexico, the text analyzes how US companies utilize inexpensive labor to establish maquila factories for assembling parts and exporting them back to the United States. Through a detailed investigation of the maquila industry, author Sklair maps the transition from historical political imperialism to modern economic imperialism. This book provides a deep look at the relationship between Mexico and the US, making it a valuable resource for those studying business and economic history.
