全球在地化的地理學：跨界組織場域的統理

GEOGRAPHIES OF GLOCALIZATION: THE GOVERNANCE OF TRANS-BORDER ORGANIZATIONAL FIELDS

本文重點將在於揭示全球化現象中不同生產組織安排之間接軌所產生機會與限制。有別於經濟地理學與社會學中襲於將全球化與在地化當作二元對立的觀點，本文藉由將之視為組織場域之間接軌的角度，將以整合，並進一步探討與產業長期競爭優勢相關的技術學習策略，以及廠商組織型態在這全球在地化過程中的可能形式與面臨的張力。藉由針對既有文獻中有關產業跨界網絡與移植的個案討論，結論指出與其陷於討論全球化來臨與否，或是流於將全球、在地兩個地理層次做折衷式的處理，不如放到具體的組織解組與重組，以及衍生的統理型態，看待跨界的經濟與技術活動，才能打開全球化研究的潘朵拉盒子，展開多重可能性的全球化地理學研究的領域。

The research aims to examine the possibilities and limits resulted from the globalization process, which is established as the collision of divergent economic organizations across different territories. In contrast to the conventional viewpoints, the paper argued that geographical scales, the global and the local, should not be taken as the dual and separating, but as intersecting and overlapping fields, where the globalising conjuncture presented the juxtapositions of the global flow and local fixity. In other words, globalization was demonstrated as the change in transnational organization fields, not just quantitatively, but also qualitatively. A number of case studies in economic geography and sociology, particularly those about the cross-border production networks and transplants, were raised in the analytic lenses to validate the argument. By doing so, it argued that rather than being entrapped in sterile debate about whether the globalization era has come, the focus should be put on the organizational de-coupling/re-coupling, the engendering tensions and the hybrid forms of governance mechanism as the global meets the local in the globalization process.
