Resumen
SILVA, Janaína Conceição da y VALE, Mário. Supply chains resilience, possible trajectories of international production and the european union's response in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. Finisterra [online]. 2023, n.124, pp.169-179. Epub 31-Dic-2023. ISSN 0430-5027. https://doi.org/10.18055/finis33422.
The various stoppages and shortages observed in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic have exposed a series of contradictions and vulnerabilities, especially in the way production structures are organized territorially on a global scale. Although such disruptions are not unprecedented, the facts have drawn attention to the need to adopt strategies to make them more resilient. Based on the recent literature on the subject, this article aims to present a reflection on the content of reshoring, diversification and sustainability strategies, looking at their definitions (conceptual and practical meanings), complexities, challenges and implications for the economy and the territory. To complement the theoretical discussion, we will illustrate how these strategies are being incorporated into official documents relating to the new European industrial strategy. In methodological terms, bibliographical research and documentary research were carried out. Among the documents analyzed, the communications prepared by the European Commission in 2020 and 2021 stand out. Preliminary results show that the reallocation of fixed assets has several complexities and barriers, making diversification a less costly and more feasible solution in the short and medium term. In the European Union, in addition to diversification, sustainability has represented an important and necessary financial investment opportunity.
