Abstract

Dieser Beitrag illustriert theoretische Argumente zu den Charakteristika vergangener und gegenwaertiger Globalisierungsprozesse am Beispiel des (ehemaligen) MAN-Produktionsstandortes Steyr. Dabei wird gezeigt, wie sich allgemeine Dynamiken verstärkter internationaler Eigentumskonzentration und Arbeitsteilung sowie ihre gesellschaftlichen Folgen - wie geringere staatliche Regulierungskapazitaet oder staerkere Machtasymmetrien - an einem konkreten Beispiel abbilden. Darueber hinaus weist der Beitrag auf weiterfuehrende Aspekte hin, die für eine politische Diskussion der Folgen standortpolitischer Entscheidungen von Konzernzentralen relevant erscheinen, insbesondere den internationalen Standortwettbewerb und seine konkrete Auspraegung auf europaeischer Ebene. Diese Ausfuehrungen zeigen, dass am Gemeinwohl orientierte institutionelle Einbettung der Globalisierung notwendig ist, aber nur gelingen kann, wenn politischen Maßnahmen auf lokaler und internationaler Ebene komplementaer ausgestaltet werden.
