China has been losing international competitiveness in labor‐intensive industries due to various factors, including the trade war with the United States and globalization. Vietnam, however, has rapidly expanded its labor‐intensive exports. The paper proposes to explore the future of labor‐intensive industries in Vietnam due to the U.S.‐China trade war. The paper examines export performance data from United Nation Comtrade for 10 specific labor‐intensive industries that serve the U.S. market between 2000 and 2020 to assess the possibility of Vietnam overtaking China's position as the world's largest manufacturer. Using situation analysis, the paper compares the competitive advantage of Vietnam in labor‐intensive industries due to the U.S.‐China trade war. The paper found that China's competitiveness was negatively impacted for the final two periods, while Vietnam's competitive advantage increased.

International trade networks are complex systems that consist of overlapping multiple trade blocs of varying sizes. However, the resulting structures of community detection in trade networks often fail to accurately represent the complexity of international trade. To address this issue, we propose a multiresolution framework that integrates information from a range of resolutions to consider trade communities of different sizes and reveal the hierarchical structure of trade networks and their constituent blocks. In addition, we introduce a measure called multiresolution membership inconsistency for each country, which demonstrates the positive correlation between a country’s structural inconsistency in terms of network topology and its vulnerability to external intervention in terms of economic and security functioning. Our findings show that network science-based approaches can effectively capture the complex interdependencies between countries and provide new metrics for evaluating the characteristics and behaviors of countries in both economic and political contexts.

The international trade network is a complex system where multiple trade blocs with varying sizes coexist and overlap with each other. However, the resulting structures of community detection in trade networks are often inconsistent and fails to capture the complex landscape of international trade. To address these problems, we propose a multiresolution framework that aggregates all the configuration information from a range of resolutions. This allows us to consider trade communities of different sizes and illuminate the underlying hierarchical structure of trade networks and its constituting blocks. Furthermore, by measuring membership inconsistency (MeI) of each country and conducting multiple regression analysis with various economic and political indicators, we demonstrate that there exists a positive correlation between the external instability of countries and their structural inconsistency in terms of network topology.
