About the product

The present study traces the recent changes in 'best-practice manufacturing' back to their theoretical and historical roots. Earlier technological and managerial innovations led to the development of mass production techniques, with a corresponding pattern of social and international economic relations. New technologies and practices are breaking up the old patterns, as firms implement new organizational and managerial systems in order to compete in an environment that stresses flexibility and product quality.
