As Japanese automotive and electronics firms have expanded their operations into the United States more attention has been focused on
Japanese management and manufacturing. In Hybrid Factory a team of
Japanese and American scholars explores the potential for the effective transfer of Japanese management and production systems that have been credited with giving Japanese firms their competitive superiority to a much different national culture. The book looks in particular at which management factors, that provide strength to
Japanese production systems, can survive the transfer to the United
States or whether the radically different social and cultural environment makes such a transfer impossible.
