Abstract
This article investigates transnational production organization, national industrial strate gies, and local development in the Southeast Asian automobile industry. We investigate tech nology transfer and localization of production among subsidiaries in Toyota Motor Corporation's ASEAN production network in relation to national and regional industrial and trade policies. Our findings suggest (1) there is an ongoing, incremental transfer in products and processes, which is (2) underpinning a growing ASEAN middle class, and (3) a post keiretsu network among Japanese and indigenous companies in the region. Future directions in the ASEAN automobile industry are also assessed.
