Measuring success in the global economy / Timothy J. Sturgeon in Transnational Corporations, TRANSCORP 18/2 (August 2009)
[article]
Titre : Measuring success in the global economy : international trade, industrial upgrading and business function outsourcing in global value chains. An essay in memory of Sanjaya Lall Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Timothy J. Sturgeon, Auteur ; Gary Gereffi, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 1-35 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Commerce international Indices d'exportation Chaîne de valeur Services Recherche et développement Chine Mexique Résumé : This article contributes to an assessment of the scholarly work of Sanjaya Lall, especially as it relates to improved measures of industrial upgrading and technological learning. We argue for the collection of new statistics, in addition to reworking and linking existing data sets.
Changes in the global economy, especially the rise of global value chains (GVCs), have created measurement problems that require not only continued innovation in the use of existing data sources, but also the development and deployment of new measures that analyze GVCs more directly. Specifically, we advocate for the collection of establishmentlevel economic data according to business functions. Data collected according to a standardized set of generic business functions can provide researchers and policymakers with a better map of the value chain, reveal the roles that domestic establishments, firms, and industries play within GVCs, and offer a unique view of the competitive pressures facing
domestic firms and industries.En ligne : http://www.unctad.org/en/docs/diaeiia200910a1_en.pdf

Titre : The co-evolution of international business connections and domestic technological capabilities: : lessons from the Japanese catch-up experience. An essay in memory of Sanjaya Lall Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John Cantwell, Auteur ; Yanli Zhang, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 36-68 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : IDE Filière de production Transfert de technologies Propriété intellectuelle Brevetage General Electric Japon Chine Résumé : We undertake an examination of the technological catch-up experiences of the leading Japanese industrial firms in the twentieth century, based on both qualitative and quantitative historical evidence. We argue that the international business connections of Japanese firms had a strong influence on the industrial composition of the catch-up of their technological capabilities, and that in turn that catch-up has led to a change in the nature and form of their international business connections.
We speculate on some similarities and differences with the current catchup of firms in emerging market economies.En ligne : http://www.unctad.org/en/docs/diaeiia200910a2_en.pdf

Titre : EU enlargement and consequences for FDI-assisted industrial development : An essay in memory of Sanjaya Lall Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rajneesh Narula, Auteur ; Christian Bellak, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 69-89 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Multinationales IDE Union européenne Europe de l'Est Résumé : Many of the new member states as well as candidate and accession
countries of the EU are confident that membership will result in
substantially increased inward foreign direct investment (FDI) in
manufacturing. This paper discusses the policy issues and challenges
that cohesion and accession countries face, applying lessons that by
now have become mainstream in the parallel discussion of FDI-assisted development in the developing economies. We argue that globalization has attenuated the benefits that accrue from EU membership for latecomers, and that they must now compete for FDI not just with other European countries but also with non-EU emerging economies. We posit that they should not base their industrial development strategy on mere passive reliance on FDI flows without considering how to concatenate their industrial development and the nature of the TNC activities they attract.En ligne : http://www.unctad.org/en/docs/diaeiia200910a3_en.pdf
