Hybrid Factories in the United States: The Japanese-Style Management and Production System under the Global Economy
Tetsuji Kawamura
This book assesses the transferability of Japanese-style management and production systems to 81 factories in North America owned by Japanese companies. All of the book's investigations are based on an original methodology, "hybridization analysis," which quantifies the degree to which features of the Japanese system have been transplanted, using an elaborate checklist and scoring system. With its wealth of data, should serve as a handy reference volume to anyoneinterested in the issue of international management and the impact of globalization upon production models.
