abstract: ABSTRACT China's integration into the information and communications technology global value chain has taken place as global technology corporations outsourced and offshored an increasing range of functions, including manufacturing, assembly, and to some extent, innovation to more competitive regions within China. Initially disappointed with low levels of technology transfer from foreign companies, China has sought to achieve greater levels of technology autonomy through more aggressive efforts in recent years to push for indigenous innovation by leveraging market access. China has achieved some limited success in establishing domestic brands but continues to lack significant core technology in critical areas such as semiconductors.

title: From foreign technology dependence towards greater innovation autonomy: China's integration into the information and communications technology (ICT) global value chain (GVC)
year: 2018

abstract: This paper presents a hypothesis stating that at the initial stage of growth by a latecomer, increased participation in the global value chain (GVC) is necessary to learn foreign knowledge and production skills, that functional upgrading at middle income stage requires effort to seek separation and independence from existing foreign dominated GVCs, and that latecomer firms and economies might have to seek reintegration back into the GVC after establishing their own local value chains. This paper aims to verify this "in out in again" hypothesis by looking into firm cases of upgrading in Korea and Brazil. Trends in the share of foreign value added in gross exports (FVA) in successful catching up economies of Korea and Taiwan, including China recently, are consistent with this pattern. Regression results also confirm a negative correlation between the degree of local creation and diffusion of knowledge and FVA values, such that gaining increased local knowledge is a basis for increasing (reducing) domestic value added (foreign value added) Given that this variable of local creation and diffusion of knowledge is a key innovation system variable, this finding implies that building local innovation systems is the key in making a possible upgrade while being integrated into the GVC.Cet article presente une hypothese selon laquelle, au stade initial de la croissance d'une entreprise entree tardivement sur un marche, une participation accrue a la chaine de valeur mondiale (CVM) est necessaire pour acquerir les connaissances et les competences de production etrangeres. Selon cette hypothese, pour une entreprise a revenu intermediaire, passer au niveau superieur de facon fonctionnelle necessite des efforts pour devenir independant et se distinguer des CVM existantes dominees par des etrangers. Enfin, l'hypothese suggere que les entreprises et economies entrees tardivement pourraient avoir a se reintegrer dans la CVM apres avoir etabli leur propre chaine de valeur locale. Cet article verifie cette hypothese en examinant des cas d'entreprises passant au niveau superieur en Coree et au Bresil. Les tendances de la VAE (part de la valeur ajoutee etrangere dans les exportations brutes) dans les economies emergentes a succes sont compatibles avec ce modele. Les resultats de regression confirment une correlation negative entre la creation locale de connaissances et les valeurs de la VAE, de telle sorte que l'augmentation des connaissances locales est la base pour augmenter la valeur ajoutee nationale (reduire valeur ajoutee etrangere) Cette constatation implique que la construction de systemes locaux d'innovation est la cle de la mise a niveau via la CVM.

title: Correction to: From Global Value Chains (GVC) to Innovation Systems for Local Value Chains and Knowledge Creation
year: 2018

abstract: This paper has forwarded the N shaped curve hypothesis that while at the initial stage of growth more GVC is desirable for learning from outside, functional upgrading requires some effort or stage of seeking separation and independence from the existing foreign dominated GVC, and that the latecomer firms and economies might have to seek again for an opening to integrate back into the GVC after building up their own local value chains. This paper has tried to verify this 'N shaped, InOut In again' hypothesis first by looking into cases of 'upgrading and independence' in Korea and Brazil, and second by checking the national level data of the share of foreign value added (FVA) It is shown that the trends of FVA in successful catching up economies, like Korea, Taiwan, and recently China, is consistent with this N shaped or In Out In again pattern. The paper has also presented some regression results that confirms some correlations between the degree of local creation and diffusion of knowledge and the values of FVA. This can be regarded as an important contribution because it illustrates the linkage between the innovation system variables (knowledge localization) to the GVC variable of the FVA. This finding implies that building local innovation systems is the key to make upgrading and local value creation possible while being integrated in the GVC.

abstract: This paper puts forth a hypothesis that while at the initial stage of growth by a latecomer, more participation at the global value chains (GVC) is desired to learn foreign knowledge and production skills, functional upgrading requires effort to seek separation and independence from existing foreigndominated GVC, and that latecomer firms and economies might have to re seek an integration back into GVC after building up their own local value chains. This paper attempted to verify this "In OutIn Again" hypothesis by looking into cases of "upgrading and independence" in Korea and Brazil, and by checking the national level data of the share of foreign value added (FVA) Trends of FVA in successful catching up economies, including China in recent years, are consistent with this In Out In Again pattern. Regression results also confirm correlations between the degree of local creation and diffusion of knowledge and FVA values. This finding can be viewed as an important contribution because the relationship illustrates the linkage between innovation system variables (knowledge localization) to the GVC variable of the FVA. This finding further implies that building local innovation systems is the key in making possible upgrading and local value creation while integrating in the GVC.

abstract: Received Septmber 20, 2018 Revised from October 23, 2019 Accepted November 30, 2019 Available online March 15, 2019 The concept of global value chains (GVC) is elaborated by the scientists and applied by practices in the fields of management, economics and politics. Contemporary due to the globalization of the creation, production and consumption process the boundaries between national, regional and international innovation systems becoming fuzzy. This phenomenon is not extensively explored consequently it encouraged to investigate GVC at sectoral level highlighting the high technology sectors' peculiarities of the downstream GVC processes The article is addressed to underline the relevance of GVC approach and empirically observe the trends of high technology sectors' fragmentation and shifts of downstream value added in Baltic region countries. The high technology sectors are distinct due to high rate of investments to R&D, therefore the decomposition of the high technology sector's value added to local and foreign consumption is appropriate. The empirical research is accomplished by comparative investigation of high technology sectors in the Baltic Region countries and based on longitudinal World Input Output Data (WIOD) available for the period from 2000 till 2014. The descriptive and predictive statistical methods were applied exploring proposed indicators for the investigation the dynamics of high technology sectors' downstream value added distribution within GVC. It enabled to compare the high technology sectors in Baltic region countries and to develop predictive models for distinct high technology sectors. The findings could be applied to examine the international business environment trends at sectoral level. JEL classification: F19; M16 DOI: 10.14254/1800 5845/2020.16 1.7

abstract: How to solve the contradiction between economic growth and ecological environmental protection is a practical problem that should be solved urgently at present. The development of green technology in the manufacturing industry must rely on technology innovation. However, the process of implementing green innovation in the manufacturing industry is full of high uncertainty and risk. First, the green innovation risks were divided into global green R&D risk, global green manufacturing risk, global green marketing risk, and global green service risk from the perspective of the process. Then, this study established a management criteria system of green innovation risk identification in the manufacturing industry under the global value chain (GVC) Furthermore, three methods were applied to identify the green innovation risk of the manufacturing industry under the GVC. Finally, this paper put forward the countermeasures to the green innovation risk of the manufacturing industry under the GVC. The empirical research results of this paper are as follows: From the perspective of the green innovation process, four risks are classified in this study, namely, global green R&D risk, global green manufacturing risk, global green marketing risk, and global green service risk. Among the four stages of green innovation risk, green marketing risk is the highest, followed by green service risk, and green R&D risk and green manufacturing risk are the least. Global green service risk and green R&D risk can be reduced mainly through risk diversification and risk reduction. Global green manufacturing risk and green marketing risk can be reduced mainly through risk diversification and secondary through risk reduction.
