Note that the values given inLos et al (2015b) andTimmer et al (2016) are not directly comparable, as they use different base years and different measures of GVC performance.6 This approach, dividing workers into two categories (high-and low-skilled) or three (high-, medium-and low-skilled) was common in the past, especially in multicounty studies relying on industry-level data on wages or labour demand structure (among others, see:Polgár and Wörz 2010;Lo Turco and Parteka 2011;Foster- McGregor et al 2013;Foster-McGregor et al 2016;Michaels et al 2014; Parteka and Wolszczak-Derlacz 2015; Wolszczak-Derlacz and Parteka 2018).Global Value Chains and Wages: Multi-Country Evidence from Linked...…”
