Abstract

"Im Hinblick auf die vieldiskutierte 'Sandwich-Position' Ostdeutschlands - zwischen den traditionellen Automobilzentren des Westens und den neuen Wachstumszonen und Niedriglohn-Standorten in Mittel- und Osteuropa - befindet sich die ostdeutsche Automobilindustrie weiterhin in einer prekären Situation. Die Entwicklungstrends sind widersprüchlich. Durch die hohe Wachstumsdynamik im Osten Europas und durch die gestiegene Innovationsintensität in der Industrie ergeben sich Chancen und Risiken. Im vorliegenden Papier werden zunächst die Entstehung neuer Standortstrukturen in Mittel- und Osteuropa und ihre Auswirkungen auf die ostdeutschen Standorte der Automobilindustrie untersucht. Im Anschluss wird die Einbeziehung der ostdeutschen Automobilindustrie in die Innovationsdynamiken der Branche betrachtet und gefragt, in welchen Technologiefeldern, in welchen Regionen eine Anschlussfähigkeit zu beobachten ist. Abschließend werden Schlussfolgerungen im Hinblick auf Chancen und Risiken der gegenwärtigen Umbrüche für die zukünftige Entwicklung von Standorten und Unternehmen der ostdeutschen Automobilindustrie gezogen."

"Stuck in the middle between the traditional Western automotive centres and the new regions and low-cost sites in Central and Eastern Europe the East German automobile industry still is in a precarious situation. However, development trends for the region are contradictory. The highly dynamic growth of the industry in Eastern Europe and the increased innovation intensity entails risks and opportunities for the future development of the East German automotive industry. The paper examines how relocation processes affect the automotive industry locations in Eastern Germany. Furthermore the paper studies the East German automotive industry's involvement in innovation dynamics of the automotive sector by analyzing in which technology fields, in which regions, and with regard do which resources the East German automotive industry is able to participate and compete. The paper concludes by highlighting the opportunities and risks of the restructuring of the European automotive industry for Eastern Germany." (author's abstract)... view less
