This article focuses on CMSC, a maquiladora located in the border city of Tijuana, Mexico, operated by a Taiwanese transnational enterprise. It explores the labor governance within the export-oriented factories managed and operated by direct foreign capital in the context of contemporary global production networks. This study finds that the labor governance within CMSC is not solely the result of labor-capital conflicts, struggles, and compromises but reflects factors such as the management philosophy, the influence of state regulations, the factory's own development trajectory, and the experiences of local workers. Thus, labor governance within border factories is shaped through the interactions and encounters of agents and forces at different scales in the workplace. Based on this understanding, the article uses the concept of ''dynamic articulating state of labor control'' to describe the labor governance situation in CMSC's workplace. It also emphasizes that this dynamic articulating state constantly changes with shifts in the agents and forces involved in shaping labor governance. |
