Relational Economic Geography: A Partial Understanding or a New Paradigm? (2008, background): “…are multiscalar networks that are global in their geographic extent and consist of “the nexus of interconnected functions and operations through which goods and services are produced, distributed and consumed” (see also Coe et al. 2004; Wrigley, Coe, and Currah 2004; Currah and Wrigley 2004).”
A theoretical framework for evolutionary economic geography: industrial dynamics and urban growth as a branching process (2007, background): “…from territory to firm resonates a more general reorientation in economic geography from territorial analysis of endowments or institutions to firm analysis of routines and competencies and their embeddedness in the local and global economy (Maskell, 2001; Boschma, 2004; Wrigley et al., 2005).”
The Strategic Localization of Transnational Retailers: The Case of Samsung-Tesco in South Korea (2006, background): “In general, transnational retailing is highly territorially embedded in comparison to almost every other sector of the global economy because of several important characteristics of the core activity (Wrigley, Coe, and Currah 2005).”
Some Notes on Institutions in Evolutionary Economic Geography (2009, background): “In addition, a single firm may apply the same set of routines across 152 different territories without denying adaptations to local circumstances (Kogut and Zander 1993; Winter and Szulanski 2001; Wrigley, Coe, and Currah 2005).”
Global production networks: realizing the potential (2008, background): “…of economic geographers (Dicken, 1994, 2003a, 2004, 2005, 2007; Dicken et al., 2001; Dicken and Henderson, 2003; Dicken and Malmberg, 2001; Henderson et al., 2002; Coe et al., 2004; Coe and Hess, 2005; Wrigley et al., 2005; Coe and Lee, 2006; Hess and Coe, 2006; Hess and Yeung, 2006; Johns, 2006).”
Whither Global Production Networks in Economic Geography? Past, Present, and Future (2006, background): “Recent work in economic geography has shown that cultural diversity and embeddedness are very much part of transnational economic activity (Coe and Lee, 2006; Hess, 2004; Wrigley and Currah, 2006; Wrigley et al, 2005).”
Barriers to ‘US Style’ lean retailing: the case of Wal-Mart's failure in Germany (2007, background): “Industries whose profits derive from distribution, such as retail or entertainment, have distinctly different strategic dispositions than product manufacturers for consumer markets or intermediate inputs (Wrigley et al., 2005).”
More than 'managing across borders? The complex role of face-to-face interaction in globalizing law firms (2007, background): “…development of transnational firms have become increasingly concerned with the operational and functional challenges faced by firms in all sectors of the economy as they seek to extend their business activities into more markets across the globe (Morgan et al 2001; Dicken 2003; Wrigley et al 2005).”
