Abstract

ABSTRACT The 4IR can open windows of opportunity for emerging economies but also raises red flags in terms of the main challenges that these changes pose to firms, industrial systems and policy approaches. Benefiting from it will not be automatic, as these economies suffer from several gaps that hamper their possibility to operate in a digital industrial landscape. However, with a capable entrepreneurial state, developing economies could use the ongoing uncertain and fast-changing scenario to fast track their development. As partnerships become more relevant for innovations due to technological convergence, competition policies and standards to avoid monopolistic positions and excessive concentration are needed to maintain the space for bottom-up innovation.

第四次工业革命、全球价值链变革和新兴经济体产业升级

摘要4IR可以为新兴经济体打开机会之窗，但也会对这些变化给企业、产业体系和政策方法带来的主要挑战发出危险信号。从中受益并不是自动的，因为这些经济体存在一些差距，阻碍了它们在数字产业格局中运营的可能性。然而，有了一个有能力的创业国家，发展中经济体可以利用持续的不确定和快速变化的情况来加快发展。由于技术趋同，伙伴关系与创新的相关性越来越大，因此需要制定竞争政策和标准来避免垄断地位和过度集中，以保持自下而上的创新空间。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Economic Policy Reform focuses on the analysis of economic policy reform. The journal draws upon what lessons can be learned from the successes and failures of countries undertaking reforms and how existing theories can be developed to shed light on positive as well as normative aspects of the reform process. The Journal of Economic Policy Reform encourages work from economists and political economy analysts on policies to promote growth and reduce poverty, intellectual property rights, aid versus trade, debt and debt relief, taxation and social security systems, surveys of key reform issues, as well as on corruption, democracy, emerging markets and the role of multilateral institutions.
