Which of the following pairs of production system and its feature is…

The correct answer is Option (2) → Fordism - Mass production of goods at a centralised location

Option (1) Post-Fordism - Mass production of goods at dispersed locations — Incorrect. Post-Fordism does use dispersed locations, but its production is flexible. Mass production of goods belongs to Fordism, so this pair mixes the two systems.

Option (2) Fordism - Mass production of goods at a centralised location — Correct. Fordism is the mass production of goods at a centralised location, with standard goods turned out in one place. Both parts of this pair match.

Option (3) Fordism - Flexible production at dispersed locations — Incorrect. Flexible production at dispersed locations is post-Fordism. Fordism has the reverse feature on both counts: mass production at one centralised location.

Option (4) Post-Fordism - Flexible production at a centralised location — Incorrect. Post-Fordism is flexible production spread over dispersed locations. A centralised location is a feature of Fordism, so this pair mixes the two systems.
