Book review: Multinationals and European integration - trade, investment and regional development

There is a considerable amount of literature on the topic of European integration and its impact on industrial location. Even so, according to the author of this book, there is little systematic evidence about spatial restructuring of companies and the way in which they are responding to increasing Europeanization of the economy. This particularly applies to inter-plant rivalry within firms engaged in rationalization programmes. The stated aim of the author is to explore issues relating to corporate restructuring across Europe using Wales as a case study region.
