products) or geological (ores and fossil
fuels) conditions.
2- Intermediate Goods
Manufacturing
and assembly

3. De-Indsutrialization
■ Context
• Decline in manufacturing capacity and employment.
• Particularly prevalent in developed countries (North
America, Europe and now Japan).
• Decline of the share of GDP in manufacturing.
• Impact on the landscape:
• Dissolution of industrial cities (e.g. Detroit).
• Decline in income and property values.
• The “death” of manufacturing has been greatly
exaggerated.

Factors Impacting De-Industrialization
Productivity growth
• More output per workers.
• Price of manufactured goods getting lower.
Outsourcing
• Remove some service activities outside the manufacturing corporation.
• Input costs is essentially "transferred" to the service sector.
Offshoring
• Transfer of a production function to another country.
Added Value
• A growing share of the added value along a value chain is derived from
non-manufacturing activities.

B – MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS

Globalized Manufacturing
© Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue
1. Globalized Manufacturing
Textiles and Garments
• Important component of the industrial revolution.
• Labor intensive activity largely globalized.
Steel
• Material and capital intensive (economies of scale).
• Provides inputs for many sectors.
• Moved to port facilities in developing countries (China).
Automobiles
• Large assembly lines with numerous suppliers (agglomeration
economies).
• Large conglomerates.

1. Globalized Manufacturing
Electronics
• Standard products (e.g. cars) and new applications
(e.g. TC & computers).
• Control of the R&D in developed countries.
• Subcontracting and assembly in developing
countries.
Biotechnology
• Use of living systems and organisms to develop or
make useful products.
• Mostly involved in pharmaceuticals, chemicals and
agriculture.
• Agglomeration economies for skilled workforce.

Fordism
The Emergence of Flexible Manufacturing (Post Fordism)
© Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue
1. Fordism
■ Impacts of mass production system (Fordism)
•
•
•
•
Customization before mass production.
Mass production and assembly lines.
Mass production (e.g. shopping mall).
Economics of scale locked into a lack of flexibility (little
customization).
• Fordism reached technical/social limits in the late 20th
Century.
© Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue
2. Post-Industrial Revolution
Economic foundation
Relative shift from manufacturing to services.
In absolute numbers, manufacturing increases.
Capital
Knowledge becomes a form of capital.
Growth
High reliance on innovation.
Labor
Declining importance of “blue collar” tasks.
Increasing importance of technical and creative tasks.
Trade
Highly diversified trade (from resources to high value
goods).
Information technologies
Global telecommunication networks.
IT embedded in products and services.
© Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue
2. The Emergence of Flexible Manufacturing (Post Fordism)
■ Principle
• Allows goods produced cheaply regardless of volume.
• Customers, supply firms, and production plant have close,
complex relationships.
• Customization and flexibility.
■ Just-in-time manufacturing
•
•
•
•
Initially developed in Japan.
On-demand manufacturing.
Limited warehousing (saving space).
High reliance on information technologies (process
control).
