Milhan Chaze et al., « THE ROLE OF KAZAKHSTAN IN THE NEW GEOGRAPHY OF PRODUCTION AND TRADE BETWEEN THE ASIAN AND EUROPEAN MARKETS », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10670/1.84d546...
For over a decade, the global economic order has been undergoing major macro-economic and geographic changes. International relations evolve with the emergence of countries that face new economic superpowers like China. Federated around this new economic Sino-pole, Asian countries are increasingly attractive to major international investors in particular due to the reduced labor costs and a consumer market of several hundred million people. These events are accompanied by a new geography of the value chain. Indeed, a new transcontinental organization of production of goods generates new trade routes using mainly sea transport to link production areas to consumer markets.
