Publisher's Synopsis
This book provides complete, yet nontechnical, analyses of production fragmentation effects and thus targets a wide range of readers -- including academics, researchers, policy makers, students, entrepreneurs, and anyone who is interested in this subject. It investigates the economic impacts of production fragmentation in Southeast Asia with a focus on Thailand's experience as an emerging global hub of fragmentation and out sourcing. This elucidates new evidence in connection with production, industrial organisations and labour economics theories, providing interesting insights for formulating industrialisation and labour development policies.
