It explores how economic geography, state policies, trade regulations, and historical legacies influence the dynamics of capital, labor, and industrial trajectories in global production systems. The book provides a detailed analysis of transitions in the apparel sector, including the shift from state socialist production models to export-oriented economies, the impact of trade agreements, and the emergence of low-cost production hubs. It also addresses issues of labor conditions, firm restructuring, and cultural economies within regional markets. Intended for academics, policymakers, and industry professionals, the book aims to deepen understanding of industrial upgrading, economic transitions, and the role of state and market interactions in shaping regional economic futures.$7Generated by AI. 410 0$aRGS-IBG Book Series 606 $aEconomic geography$xEconomic aspects$zBulgaria 606 $aGlobalization$zSlovakia 606 $aClothing trade 615 0$aEconomic geography$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aGlobalization 615 0$aClothing trade. 676 $a332/.042 700 $aPickles$b John$f1952-$0623816 701 $aSmith$b Adrian$f1966-$0147233 701 $aBegg$b Robert$01677426 701 $aBuc?ek$b M$g(Milan)$01877301 701 $aRoukova$b Poli$01677428 701 $aPa?stor$b Rudolf$01677429 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818627503321 996 $aArticulations of Capital$94489439 997 $aUNINA
