| Abstract | This chapter provides an in-depth definition of offshoring, outlining the many different ways that industrial activity – in either manufacturing or services – can be shifted abroad. For a given corporate group, distinction is made between the two major types of offshoring: i) relocation through the corporation’s own affiliates; and ii) international subcontracting to non-affiliated enterprises. In both cases, the portion of the operations sent offshore that had previously been intended to satisfy domestic demand is subsequently imported. |
