Shifting sources and uses of profits: sustaining US financialization with global value chains (2008, background): “According to Arndt and Kierzkowski (2001, pp. 2, 6): spatial dispersion of production allows the factor intensity of each component, rather than the average factor intensity of the end product, to determine the location of its production. The international division of labor now matches factor intens”
