For more than two decades now, groups of American researchers have studied the Japanese production system, in response to economic events. The first event was an increase of imports from Japan. The second was the transfer of the Japanese system to the U.S. American researchers developed the term "lean production" based on their field research in automotive plants throughout the world. They went on field research to transplants of Japanese firms and emulators among indigenous firms. The theme of their study was the transferability of the Japanese system to the U.S. They reached the perspective of hybridization through field studies on transplants and emulators. This paper aims to trace the evolutionary process of studies on the Japanese production system and its transfer to the U.S. These studies defined specific features of the production system and raised productive issues regarding organizational transfers across borders.
