Abstract
This chapter aims to critically analyze the implications that the national protectionist policies have on the global supply and value chains and the relocation of production. The analysis is based on the assumptions that the global economy is facing the possibility of decoupling of many trade connections, and this trend favors deglobalization processes that have long been promoted by populism, nationalism, and economic protectionism. It is concluded that global supply, production, and value chains, although being economically efficient, are no longer any more secure under national protectionist policies, and therefore, the relocation of production processes is mainly due to the increase in the level of income and wages of the developing countries that are the destination, and which reduce the advantages to relocate.

Research Project Future of the Present: The Process and the Importance of Signs Observation into Fashion
Can also be termed as Fílière a term of French origin and has the meaning of row, that is, a sequence of business activities that lead to a subsequent processing of goods, from raw to finished or consumer designated. It consists of several stages of production interrelated, each with its special characteristics that contribute to the development of the next phase. Globally, the production chain of fashion is a system that has certain singularities covering five links: (a) wiring, (b) weaving, (c) processing, (d) elaboration, (e) market. [...] Across, support services operate at the same time such as mechanical and textile and intermediary services such as equipment suppliers, the production of software, specialized publishing, fashion fairs, advertising agencies and communication studios creation in fashion design and corporate functions (marketing, finance, trade, among others). These phases are interdependent and have numerous links among themselves and with other industrial sectors. The process of textile production is, however, relatively straightforward and independent: the outcome of each stage of production can feed the next step apart from factors such as scale and production technology” (Rech, 2006, p.68).
