This article aims to unpack and analyse the institutional and political dynamics of strategic coupling from a host region perspective, adopting an actor-centred approach that focuses on regional institutions’ efforts to attract and embed lead firm investments within global production networks. We are particularly concerned with understanding the strategic agency and shifting coalitions of actors that create couplings and shape their evolution over time. This involves opening up the institutional underpinnings of strategic couplings by focusing more specifically on the key episodes in their creation and the organisation of the temporary coalitions that do the work of creating couplings. This approach is operationalised through a case study of the Siemens offshore wind turbine plant in the Humber region of England. In conclusion, we emphasise the need for regional institutions to develop adaptive coupling creation strategies that co-evolve with the reconfiguration of production networks and the reshaping of national institutional and political environments.

在全球生产网络中建立战略耦合:英国亨伯地区的区域机构和领先的公司投资

本文旨在从东道地区的角度解开和分析战略耦合的制度和政治动态,采用以行动者为中心的方法,重点关注地区机构为吸引领先企业投资并将其嵌入全球生产网络所做的努力。我们特别关注了解战略机构和不断变化的参与者联盟,这些联盟会随着时间的推移产生耦合并塑造其演变。这涉及通过更具体地关注其创建过程中的关键事件以及执行创建耦合工作的临时联盟的组织,来打开战略耦合的制度基础。通过对位于英格兰亨伯地区的西门子海上风力涡轮机工厂的案例研究,该方法得以实施。综上所述,
