Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of government subsidies and private research and development (R&D) on global value chains position (GVCP) and the moderating role of task complexity in China. It utilizes regional data from official Chinese statistics and the Trade in Value Added 2018 database from the period of 2005–2016. The results indicate that different sources of R&D funds have different effects on GVCP. In particular, government subsidies promote GVCP, while private R&D impedes GVCP. Furthermore, the results indicate that task complexity positively moderates the relationship between private R&D and GVCP, and it negatively moderates the relationship between government subsidies and GVCP. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of task complexity for regional enterprises seeking to enhance their GVCP and provides policymakers with new insights into their subsidy policies.

政府补贴、私人研发和全球价值链定位：任务复杂性的调节作用

本研究旨在考察中国政府补贴和私人研发（R&D）对全球价值链地位（GVCP）的影响以及任务复杂性的调节作用。研究利用中国官方统计数据和《2018 年增加值贸易》数据库中 2005-2016 年的地区数据。结果表明，不同的研发资金来源对GVCP有不同的影响。其中，政府补贴促进 GVCP，而私人研发阻碍 GVCP。此外，研究结果表明，任务复杂性正向调节私人研发与 GVCP 之间的关系，负向调节政府补贴与 GVCP 之间的关系。因此，本研究强调了任务复杂性对于地区企业寻求提高其 GVCP 的重要性，并为政策制定者的补贴政策提供了新的启示。
