Why Are Location Factors Changing? Chapter 11 Key Issue 4 Why Are Location Factors Changing?

Attraction of New Industrial Regions The cost of labor is changing the spatial organization of industry around the world. This is particularly true of the textile and apparel industry. In the 20th century production in the U.S. moved from the Northeast to the Southeast to take advantage of cheaper wages. More recently the apparel industry is located in Latin America, China, and other Asian countries. Now the U.S. imports more than 75% of its clothing needs. This is one part of the new international division of labor. Industrial jobs are transferring to LDCs largely as a result of transnational corporations’ search for low-cost labor. Transnational corporations are outsourcing, turning over much of the responsibility for production to independent suppliers.

Renewed Attraction of Traditional Industrial Regions In some MDCs industry is remaining in traditional regions because of skilled labor and rapid delivery to market. The Fordist approach, named for Henry Ford, traditionally assigned each worker a specific task in a mass production industry. Post-Fordist production has recently become the norm in MDCs. It is flexible production with skilled workers characterized by teams working together, problem solving through consensus, and factory workers being treated alike regardless of their level. Just-in-time delivery is the shipment of parts and materials to a factory immediately before they are needed. It avoids the stocking of unnecessary and expensive inventory.
