| Abstract | This chapter considers the major variables that determine how offshoring affects domestic employment, and it distinguishes between the short-term and medium-term effects on employment. While the short-term effects of offshoring are often negative, in the longerterm the effects can be positive, depending on the interaction between production, direct investment and international trade flows. The chief motivations for offshoring are also briefly presented along with the latest developments in the theoretical debate regarding trade, offshoring and employment. |
