Toward a Dynamic Theory of Global Production Networks (2015, background): “…beyond the analysis of value chain governance structures (Gereffi 1994; Gereffi et al. 2005; Sturgeon 2009), relational network configurations (Dicken et al. 2001; Henderson et al. 2002; Yeung 2005), and industrial upgrading and the strategic coupling of clusters and regions (Humphrey and…”
Integrating world cities into production networks : the case of port cities (2010, methodology): “…that deals with processes of economic-geographical globalization and the formation of global production networks, global value and commodity chains (Coe et al. 2004; Dicken et al. 2001; Ernst and Kim 2002; Gereffi and Korzenwiecz 1994; Gereffi et al. 2005; Henderson et al. 2002; Kaplinsky 2004).”
Regulating economic globalization (2004, background): “They have no pregiven structural power ( Dicken et al, 2001 ), which is why a reading of globalization as the unfolding of an immanent capitalist logic or the inscribed power of old suspects is in itself suspect.”
Sectoral Differentiation and Network Structure Within Contemporary Worldwide Corporate Networks (2011, methodology): “301 SEC TO R A L D IFFER EN T IAT IO N A N D N ET W O R K ST RU C T U R E Conclusions The findings of our study contribute to understanding the interdependencies among firms at the local, regional, and global territorial scales (Yeung 2005; Coe et al. 2004; Dicken and Malmberg 2001).”
Relational Cities: Doha, Panama City, and Dubai as 21st Century EntrepÔts (2013, background): ““Relationality” as a concept has been embedded firmly within urban and economic geographies (Dicken et al., 2001; Graham and Marvin, 2001; Ward, 2010).”
Globalizing retail: conceptualizing the distribution-based transnational corporation (TNC) (2005, background): “TNCs have been described by Nohria and Ghoshal (1997) as ‘differentiated networks’ or, more recently, by economic geographers (Dicken et al., 2001) as complex relational networks – that is to say networks of ‘internalized, intra-firm relationships embedded within networks of externalised,…”
Whither Global Production Networks in Economic Geography? Past, Present, and Future (2006, methodology): “The GCC/GVC analysis, however, does suffer from some significant shortcomings that can be remedied through the GPN framework (see Dicken et al, 2001; Henderson et al, 2002).”
Uneven Geographies of Organizational Practice: Explaining the Cross-National Transfer and Diffusion of ISO 9000 (2005, background): “importance of networks and, moreover, their inherent spatiality, in explaining the uneven outcomes of economic globalization (Coe and Yeung 2001; Dicken, Kelly, Olds, and Yeung 2001; Bathelt and Gluckler 2003).”
Global cluster networks—foreign direct investment flows from Canada to China (2014, background): “For developing clusters, trans-local connections may be built either by attracting FDIs from multinational production networks or by receiving contracts from global lead firms within value chains (Dicken et al., 2001).”
Resources in Economic Geography: From Substantive Concepts towards a Relational Perspective (2005, background): “In this view, clusters have causal power because network relations have an èmergent effect' (Dicken et al, 2001; Yeung, 1994): that is, they make the cluster visible to others.”
