Abstract

[fre] Dans cet article, nous proposons une analyse des ajustements dans le sec­teur textile-habillement suite à la levée de l'Accord Multi-Fibres (AMF), à partir d'un modèle de type gravitationnel. Sur la base d'un échantillon mondial agrégé couvrant 85 % des exportations de ce secteur, nous étudions plus particulière­ment les relocalisations de l'activité entre un groupe de régions « périphériques » asiatiques et les pays de l'OCDE. Nous analysons l'impact de la réduction des coûts d'échange induite par la libéralisation commerciale sur le modèle de locali­sation des activités textile-habillement. L'introduction de coûts d'échange bilaté­raux entraîne une différenciation de l'espace économique qui modère le rôle des avantages comparatifs dans l'approfondissement de la spécialisation des écono­mies domestiques. [eng] This article analyses the process of geographical adjustment in the sectors of textiles and garments, in the perspective of the removal of the Multi-Fibre Agree­ment. It uses a gravity-type model based on a sample accounting for 85 per cent of total world exports in those sectors. Particular attention is paid to potential pro­ductive re-location among OECD countries and a group of peripheral Asian coun­tries. Implications in terms of reduction of bilateral exchange costs in the location model are discussed. The introduction of such costs will limit the role of compara­tive advantages in the deepening of domestic specialisation.
