1 C/W Qu: How have TNCs helped shrink the world? 1/3/17 Aim: To outline the role of TNCs in contributing to the spread of globalisation how they have grown by taking advantage of economic liberalisation. Starter: Watch this clip then answer the following Qs: 1. How many of the featured products have you had/used in the last month? 2. Waynes World came out in How have Reebok remained competitive in the 25 years since the film was released? Global production networks, offshoring, outsourcing, development of new markets 3. What key term from a previous lesson explains how these TNCs are able to operate globally? Think WTO or China post 1978 Economic Liberalisation 4. Can you think of any ways these 'American' products have been adapted to cater for the local UK market?

3 Context This lesson serves as an introduction to the role of transnational corporations in shrinking the world. TNCs contribute to the spread of globalisation creating global production networks and developing new markets and take advantage of economic liberalisation to outsource and offshore different stages of production. Understanding financial flows is crucial to understanding globalisation, and TNCs are said to be the key players or architects, of economic globalisation. TNCs are firms that have co ordinated operations in more than one country. The last century has seen a significant change in the geography of TNCs improvements in transport and infrastructure have led to the development of global production networks and a new international spatial division of labour. Offshoring and outsourcing are terms used to describe the way that TNCs move sectors of their business abroad. TNCs are central players in the globalisation game, and this lesson serves as an introduction to their structure and organisation. You also need to start evaluating the impacts of globalisation questioning the extent to which global culture is increasingly homogenised; the term glocalisation is used to describe a global product that has been adapted to suit local tastes. It could be said, therefore, that cultural diffusion is a two way process; it is too simplistic to say that globalisation rides roughshod over local culture, and it may be more accurate to say that globalisation is creating something new: a cultural hybrid.
4 How TNCs have contributed to the spread of Globalisation
5 Global Production Networks The goods we buy are now the end product of a complex, global supply network where component parts are sourced and made in many different countries. The BMW mini, for example, uses components supplied by 2,500 different companies across several continents. Product chains are now so globally intertwined that an event in one part of the world can effect the supply of goods being sold somewhere else.
6 Watch the first two minutes of this clip
7 Glocalisation Where a TNC adapts its product to local cultures and markets. Some global brands no longer have fully 'global' products. In this way, rather than globalisation simply homogenising the world, it actually creates a wave of 'cultural hybrids'. Note that for some products thisnis not necessary as it is the global appeal that is the selling point e.g. coca cola.

9 Development of New Markets As LEDCs/NICs develop, the number of middle class people there rises. This opens up new markets that allow TNCs to keep making profits but also spread their products to previously untapped parts of the world and hence spread globalisation
10 Watch this clip about the recent growth of the Chinese wine industry. Listen carefully to the reason the grower gives for the increased demand. 8:30 10:30 Watch this clip about rising middles classes and increased car ownership in China. This represents a huge new market for TNCs and will further spread globalisation as people there desire Western products as a sign of wealth and how 'westernised' they have become. Both these clips illustrate the new spending power of the Chinese middle classes. This pattern is replicated in other NICs and provides new markets for TNCs and increases the spread of globalisation.
11 How TNCs have grown by taking advantage of Economic Liberalisation
12 Outsourcing Where a TNC gets another company, in another country, to fulfill a job for them. This could be a customer service call center, for a UK firm running in India, and operated by an Indian firm. It could be a Chinese firm making component parts to supply to Nike for your trainers. In short, many TNCs now don't actually make all of their own products or provide all of the services that are provided under their company name.
13 Is this outsourcing? Not really...
14 Watch and get down the 5 reasons why companies outsource
15 Offshoring Where a TNC moves its production overseas but still owns/runs the factory. A good example is Nissan in the UK that you studied 3 lessons ago. This is either done to save money on wages, move closer to markets or to bypass trading bloc tariffs.
