Cattaneo, O.Gereffi, G.Miroudot, S.Taglioni, D.2013-07-102013-07-102013-04https://hdl.handle.net/10986/14444In recent years, global value chains have played an increasing role in business strategies, profoundly affecting international trade and development paradigms. Global value chains now represent a major source of socio-upgrading opportunities and a new path for development. Trade, competitiveness and development policies should be reshaped accordingly to seize these opportunities and avoid the risks associated with greater participation in global value chains. This paper provides a framework and analytical tools for measuring and improving a country's performance with respect to participation in global value chains. With a clear operational focus, it provides guidance for countries willing to join, maintain participation, and/or move up global value chains. With the ultimate objective to increase the value (the development content) for trade, it also offers strategies to maximize the benefits and minimize the risks of developing countries' participation in global value chains.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCOUNTINGADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURESAGRICULTUREAUTOMOBILEAUTOMOBILESBANDWIDTHBASIC METALSBEST PRACTICEBUSINESS ACTIVITIESBUSINESS CLIMATEBUSINESS DECISIONSBUSINESS ENVIRONMENTBUSINESS FUNCTIONSBUSINESS MODELSBUSINESS OPERATIONSBUSINESS PRACTICESBUSINESS RELATIONSHIPBUSINESS STRATEGIESBUSINESSESBUYERBUYERSCALL CENTERCALL CENTERSCAPACITY BUILDINGCARBONCARBON TAXESCELLULAR NETWORKCHAMBERS OF COMMERCECOMMODITIESCOMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURECOMPARATIVE ADVANTAGECOMPARATIVE ADVANTAGESCOMPETITIVE PRICESCOMPETITIVENESSCOMPUTERSCONNECTIVITYCONSUMER ELECTRONICSCONSUMER MARKETSCONSUMERSCRISESCUSTOMER BASECUSTOMER SERVICESCUSTOMSDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPING COUNTRYDEVELOPING ECONOMIESDEVELOPMENT OF E-COMMERCEDEVELOPMENT POLICIESDEVELOPMENT POLICYDEVELOPMENT STRATEGIESDIGITIZATIONDISPUTE RESOLUTIONDISTRIBUTION CHANNELSDISTRIBUTION NETWORKDISTRIBUTION SERVICESDIVISION OF LABORDOMESTIC MARKETDRIVERSDUMPINGE-COMMERCEECONOMIC ASSETSECONOMIC STABILITYELASTICITYELECTRICITYELECTRONIC TRANSFERSEMERGING ECONOMIESENVIRONMENTALEQUIPMENTEXPORT BARRIERSEXPORT MARKETEXPORT PROMOTIONEXPORTSEXPOSUREFEMALE EMPLOYMENTFINANCIAL SECTORFINANCIAL SERVICESFOOD PRODUCTIONFOREIGN COMPANIESFOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTFOREIGN EXCHANGEFOREIGN INPUTSFOREIGN INVESTMENTFOREIGN VALUEGDPGEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTIONSGLOBAL COMPETITIVENESSGLOBAL MARKETPLACEGLOBAL MARKETSGLOBAL STANDARDSGLOBALIZATIONHARMONIZATIONHOME COUNTRYHUMAN CAPITALICTIMPORT BARRIERSINCOMEINEFFICIENCYINFORMATION SYSTEMINNOVATIONINNOVATION POLICIESINPUT FACTORSINPUT PROVIDERSINSURANCEINTANGIBLESINTELLECTUAL PROPERTYINTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTIONINTERMEDIATE GOODSINTERMEDIATE INPUTSINTERNATIONAL BEST PRACTICESINTERNATIONAL COMPETITIONINTERNATIONAL COOPERATIONINTERNATIONAL MARKETINTERNATIONAL STANDARDSINTERNATIONAL TRADEINTERNATIONALIZATIONIPIT INFRASTRUCTUREJOB CREATIONKNOWLEDGE ECONOMYLABOR COSTSLABOR LAWSLABOR MARKETLABOR REGULATIONSLABOR STATISTICSLAW ENFORCEMENTLEGAL FRAMEWORKLEGAL ISSUESLIBERALIZATIONLICENSELICENSESMANUFACTURINGMARKET ACCESSMARKET SHARESMARKETINGMATERIALMISSING DATAMOBILE PHONEMONITORING MECHANISMMONOPOLYMULTILATERAL TRADENATURAL RESOURCESNETWORKSNEW TECHNOLOGIESOCCUPATIONSOFFSHORE OUTSOURCINGOLIGOPOLIESONE-STOP SHOPSOPEN ACCESSOUTPUTOUTPUTSOUTSOURCINGPARADIGM SHIFTPATENTSPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPERSONAL COMPUTERSPOLICY DECISIONSPOLICY MAKERSPOLITICAL STABILITYPOLLUTIONPOSITIVE EXTERNALITIESPRICE FLUCTUATIONSPRIVATE INVESTMENTPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTORSPROCUREMENTPRODUCERSPRODUCTION PROCESSPRODUCTIVITYPROPERTY RIGHTSPROTECTION OF DATAPROTECTION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTYPROTECTIONISMPUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONPUBLIC POLICYQUALITY STANDARDSQUOTASRECYCLINGREGULATORSREGULATORY ENVIRONMENTRELIABILITYRELIABLE ACCESSRESOURCE MANAGEMENTRESULTRESULTSRETAIL TRADERISK MANAGEMENTSAFETYSAFETY NETSSAFETY STANDARDSSATELLITESERVERSSMALL COUNTRIESSUPERMARKETSSUPERVISIONSUPPLIERSSUPPLY CHAINSUPPLY CHAINSSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTSUSTAINABLE USETAX INCENTIVESTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESSTELECOMMUNICATIONTELECOMMUNICATIONSTELEPHONETELEVISIONTIMBERTIMELY ACCESSTRACEABILITYTRADE BARRIERSTRADE COMPETITIVENESSTRADE FACILITATIONTRADE NEGOTIATIONSTRADE POLICIESTRADE POLICYTRADING SYSTEMTRADITIONAL MARKETSUNDUE INFLUENCEUNEMPLOYMENTUSERUSERSVALUATIONVALUE ADDEDVALUE CHAINVALUE CHAINSVERTICAL INTEGRATIONWAGE DIFFERENTIALSWEBWORLD ECONOMYWORLD TRADEWTOWorld Bank10.1596/1813-9450-6406
