“…(1) Trade openness (OPEN): The transmission mechanism of trade openness influences the upgrading of the global value chain by generating an economies of scale effect, learning effect, and a resource efficiency allocation effect through export trade, which enhances the international division of labor in a country's agriculture, influencing the position of the country's agriculture in the global value chain (Maertens and Swinnen, 2015; Said and Fang, 2019) [38,39]. This paper used the share of a country's (regional) exports of goods and services in its GDP to measure its degree of trade openness.…”

This study aimed to examine the impact of services development and technological innovation on the embedded location of the agricultural global value chain (GVC), and the interaction between the two in fifty-seven countries (regions) around the world. This study constructed an econometric model for empirical testing based on theoretical analysis. The results showed that services development and technological innovation contributed to the embedded location of the agricultural GVC, and there was a significant substitution effect between them. A sub-group test for different income levels showed that the influence of services development and technological innovation on the embedded location of the agricultural GVC was positive in high-income and upper-middle-income countries (regions), while their influence on the embedded location of the agricultural GVC was negative in lower-middle-income countries (regions). A significant substitution effect between services development and technological innovation is always present. Quantile regression results showed that the influence of services development on the embedded location of the agricultural GVC was significantly positive at all quantile points, but the significant influence of technological innovation and the interaction between the two on the embedded location of the agricultural GVC was mainly concentrated in the low and middle quantile points. From the perspective of services development and technological innovation, this study applied the analysis framework and research methods of the global value chain to the analysis of the global agricultural value chain, expanded the research scope of the global value chain, and provided a theoretical basis for countries (regions) to further deepen their agricultural global production network and agricultural GVC.

“…Amador et al ( 2018 ) identified the important but distinct role of large economies (Germany, the U.S., China, and Japan) and the cyclical triangular relationships in GVCs. Said and Fang ( 2019 ) found that a few countries concentrate the distribution of global trade but to a declining degree, letting Russia, India, and Saudi Arabia become central. Guan et al ( 2020 ) examined the propagation process of intermediate products and the interdependence from a given GVC sector to its upstream and downstream sectors.…”

This paper examines the role of some key economies in the economic contagion across global value chains using input-output analysis and complex network statistics. The empirical research focuses on China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States. A range of novel measures were used to measure the nature and extent of global value chain relationships. The empirical results reveal that, because of the high interdependence and interconnectedness in the global value chain networks, the transmission of an economic shock in China and the United States will be fast, wide, and in-depth in the global value chain networks. Sample countries are more exposed to an economic shock in China than a shock in the other four big economic partners, namely the United States, Germany, Japan, and Korea. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s11294-023-09871-0.

“…In the GVC, MNCs excel in core technologies, R&D, conception and design, brands, and marketing channels, and control the high value-added links [7,32]. If developing countries want to increase their value addition in the GVC, they need to continuously develop their capability and actively participate with superior productivity and resources both tangible and intangible, and attract quality investments from MNCs.…”

Sustainable Production Clauses and Positioning in the Global Value Chain: An Analysis of International Investment Agreements (IIA) of the ICT Industry in Developing and Developed Markets

Positioning in the global value chain (GVC) reflects the level and kinds of value creation of a firm or industry. The value creation can be on the upstream or downstream of the value chain. This study explores the effects of sustainable production clauses on the economic and physical positioning of information and communication technology (ICT) firms in the global value chain (GVC). We examined 2107 international investment agreements (IIA), signed by 54 countries that represent 70% of the global investment agreements. The empirical results show that the sustainable production intensity clauses in the IIAs have a significant impact on the positioning of ICT’s in the GVC. However, the degree of impact on the economic scale of participation and physical location in the GVC differs. The heterogeneity test shows that the sustainable production intensity clauses of IIAs between developed and developing countries affect positively and significantly the physical and economic locations in the GVCs. This is less significant while the IIAs are signed between the developed markets. These findings demonstrate that countries should consider sustainable production principles and responsible business conducts while signing the IIAs, and ensure their implementation while participating in the GVCs. This process can enhance value creation by moving towards higher value creation activities within the GVC.
