Effects of globalization on food production in five European countries

Abstract

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of globalization convergence (GC) and its components (social, economic, political, technological and ecological) on food production (FP).Design/methodology/approachThe methodological approach adopted is based on a quantitative approach, using a static panel data analysis with relevant data from five European countries within five time intervals (2013–2017).FindingsThe results indicated that three components of globalization (social, technological and ecological) could significantly contribute to the food industry, while two other components of globalization (economic and political) are negatively correlated with FP.Research limitations/implicationsThis study contributes to the theoretical recognition of the role of globalization in influencing FP in multidisciplinary interactions. Meanwhile, this study's main limitation lies in the statistical method of panel data analysis, since temporal and spatial changes have not been investigated.Originality/valueDespite the literature on globalization's effect on FP, each globalization component's effect has not been investigated appropriately within cross-countries studies. Hence, the present study addresses a gap in the extant literature by examining the globalization effects on the food industry to promote globalized food security, opportunities and solutions in the study areas.

The Evaluation Prediction System for Urban Advanced Manufacturing Development

“…(2) In terms of evaluation system, this article expands the research on UAM from the perspective of PPM theory. Previous studies have mostly focused on PEST [46], SWOT [47], and Diamond Theory [48]. However, existing theories mostly focus on the factors that initially affect the industry, often neglecting the dynamic situation that promotes or hinders the industry.…”

Exploring the influencing factor of urban industry development: An order parameter method

“…Du (2016) systematically analyzes the development environment of China's auto parts industry through PEST theory, aiming to provide some suggestions for relevant enterprises. Khatami et al (2022) studied the impact of globalization convergence on food industry based on pest theory. The results show that society and technology can make significant contributions to the food industry, while the global economy and politics are negatively related to the food industry.…”
