%X The question of delocation in main industrial regions across the EU
is approached here, and its effects on job losses estimated. Seventy five regions are selected following the double criteria of size of the manufacturing industries and high per capita income levels. Delocation affected half of them in the period 2000-2005 when competition in the international markets rose and is of higher intensity in most of the British, French and Italian regions although its aggregate effect on employment seems to have been offset by growth in the other sectors. On the other hand, regions located in the continental area with more market potential have the highest concentration of location effects. Therefore delocation has changed the location of European manufacturing industry, benefitting those latter regions and perhaps bringing higher spatial concentration.
