Abstract

ABSTRACT We examine the role of innovative efforts in industries from the perspective of global value chains (GVCs). We set up a simple model and empirically test it using patent and bilateral export decomposition data. The model shows that innovative activities assumed to decrease the cost of conducting high-skilled tasks can upgrade the position of the industry in GVCs. This is also supported by data on patents and GVC-related data from the OECD and the Asian Development Bank. The empirical results reveal that a higher number of patent applications are closely related to more production of intermediate goods rather than assembly.

创新在全球价值链升级中的作用

本文从全球价值链(GVCs)的角度考察了创新在产业中的作用。我们建立了一个简单的模型，并使用专利和双边出口分解数据对其进行了实证检验。模型表明，降低高技能任务成本的创新活动可以提升产业在全球价值链中的地位。这也得到了来自经合组织和亚洲开发银行的专利数据和全球价值链相关数据的支持。实证结果表明，较高的专利申请量与更多的中间产品而不是组装产品的生产密切相关。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
