Abstract

The automobile sector is often presented as the archetypal global industry. In this view, the auto business is one of the main drivers behind the homogenization of the world, both because of firms’ internationalization strategies (mergers/acquisitions, the establishment of facilities in emerging countries, world cars, international division of labour and so on) and as a result of the social practices such firms enact via their organization of work and at the lifestyle (automobile civilization) level.
