Abstract

The development of global value chain (GVC) has confirmed a paradigm shift in international studies. GVC suggests that the globalization of economic activity brings about gains for developing countries through capability improvement of their firms supplying for lead firm. Nevertheless, there is only a small number of developing countries insert into GVC and successfully enhance their economy. This paper aims to understand how developing countries decide to participate in and to upgrade along GVC by taking cases from Indonesian suppliers across industries. The narratives reveal that the distribution of value creation between Indonesian suppliers and lead firm within GVC is critical for the decision making to engage and to upgrade. It indicates that the suppliers scrutinize the relationship to ensure that the value creation is not only technically feasible to fit intheir existing resources and capabilities, but more importantly economically justifiable to capture more of value being created. The problem of power asymmetry tends to result in inequitable distribution of cost and benefit in value capture by Indonesian suppliers and lead firm. This makes the value creation and value upgrading within GVC less economically attractive course of action. The implication for further research on GVC shouldhighlight the value capture particularly within governance in which power asymmetry exists, while public policy should facilitate to strengthen distinctive resources and capabilities of suppliers.

Abstract

This study compares carbon emissions across panels of high-income countries (HICs) and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Using the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis as a theoretical framework, this study observes the curve for each income panel using random effects panel regression, controlling for the scale, composition, technological, and pollution outsourcing effects. With a dataset ranging 30 years from 1990 to 2019 and a panel of 18 HICs and 20 LMICs, the regression results validate the presence of an EKC-like relationship between emissions and income per capita for both panels. Key findings show that LMICs are on a path of growth that emits fewer emissions than HICs at the same income level due to access to less emission-intensive technologies. This suggests that, in contrast to previous theoretical understanding, the effects observed in the EKC occur simultaneously rather than sequentially and may be leveraged to dominate at any point on the curve. In practice, LMICs are urged to dismiss the “grow now, clean later” ethos and instead, adopt cleaner production methods through energy efficiency initiatives, technological transfers, and technological leapfrogging to manage economic growth without a corresponding growth in emissions.
