Abstract

Globalisierung' lautet das Schlagwort, das seit geraumer Zeit die wirtschaftspolitischen Debatten beherrscht. Zunächst war damit vor allem die Öffnung von nationalen Güterund Finanzmärkten gemeint, die mit einem enormen Wachstum der Güterexporte und internationalen Finanztransaktionen einherging. Die Mobilität des Kapitals hat nicht nur in der finanziellen, sondern auch in der realen Dimension zugenommen. Das Zwillingsschlagwort ‚Internationalisierung' kennzeichnet somit einen Trend zur grenzüberschreitenden Vernetzung von Produktionsprozessen innerhalb einzelner Unternehmen, aber auch eine erhebliche Erweiterung der Optionen zur Verlagerung von Produktionsstandorten. Dieser zweite Aspekt gerät angesichts der hohen Arbeitslosigkeit in Deutschland immer wieder in den Mittelpunkt von Kontroversen. Hierbei dient häufig das Verhältnis von aus- zu einfließenden Direktinvestitionen als 'globaler Indikator' für die Qualität des Standorts Deutschland. Der chronische Überschuß der ausfließenden Direktinvestitionen in der Zahlungsbilanz wird gemeinhin als Zeichen für eine 'Standortschwäche' gedeutet, die zu Beschäftigungsverlusten führen muß.
