Abstract

What are the implications for Brexit for manufacturing supply chains? This is the focus of a new open-access paper just available in Regional Studies, co-authored by Alex de Ruyter, David Hearne and Raquel Ortega-Argilés.

We look at the impact of post-Brexit trade dis-integration on the automotive sector in the East and West Midlands of the UK as a long-run slow burn process and consider the ramifications for industrial policy and resilience. We suggest these are illuminating case studies given their vulnerabilities to Brexit disruption due to the intricate nature of the auto supply chain’s trading relationships with the EU.
