Although automotive TNCs are dedicated to investing in local industries in third-world countries, they still control essential knowledge that secures their positions within supply chains.252 Without critical knowledge, industries in third-world countries can only depend on TNCs for survival,253 thereby maintaining the hierarchy within automotive supply chains,254 demonstrating the material power of TNCs to control industries in other countries.	cache/iiclr-29056.pdf	txt/iiclr-29056.txt
