Judicial Adjudication and the Spatial Structure of Production: Two Decisions by the National Labor Relations Board

Two decisions by the National Labor Relations Board are analysed with regard to their spatial implications. It is shown that these decisions, issued in 1982 and 1984 with respect to the contract rights of labor and capital in a particular firm, can have fundamental effects on the spatial configuration of economic activity. The substantive ideological and legal arguments are analysed, as are the underlying conceptions of contract rights. Implications are also drawn about the importance of the legal perspective in understanding local labor-market patterns in the United States of America.
