TY - JOUR PY - 2000// TI - The defence industry supply chain: Linkage patterns in the south west of england JO - Defence and peace economics A1 - Williams, T. SP - 313 EP - 328 VL - 11 IS - 1 N2 - In this paper, new data from the south west of England are used to illustrate that defence dependent firms are likely to purchase more inputs locally than less defence-dependent firms. The results confirm that the defence industry's supply chain has unusual characterises and that defence industrial restructuring is therefore, likely to produce different outcomes to previous rounds of manufacturing restructuring.
