This chapter reviews the potential upgrading trajectories for firms engaged in global value chains (GVCs) to effectively reduce the impacts on the environment of all activities linked to their products - not just those that are carried out in house - and the major drivers of these investments. We also examine the role of global lead firms in fostering the greening of GVCs and the different governing approaches that they have adopted. Furthermore, we look at different forms of supplier agency in these processes, both in the Global North and the Global South. Finally, we identify the key challenges related to the reduction of environmental impacts along GVCs and discuss limits and opportunities for the joint achievement of economic and environmental outcomes.","PeriodicalId":250962,"journal":{"name":"Handbook on Global Value Chains","volume":"11 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114136000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this chapter, we focus on innovation in global value chains and on the role that such chains play in building and deepening capability. We also focus on the trajectories along which firms, once inserted into global value chains and located in developing countries, acquire or lose innovation capability. To do so, we bring together the global value chains and innovation systems approaches. Our key arguments are that global value chains interact with innovation systems in multiple ways and that these interactions have important implications for the speed, depth, and overall quality of capability building in developing-country firms. We outline five innovation capability trajectories and show how capability building at the firm level interrelates with the various ways in which global value chains and innovation systems co-evolve.","PeriodicalId":250962,"journal":{"name":"Handbook on Global Value Chains","volume":"229 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122119088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Introduction to the Handbook on Global Value Chains","authors":"S. Ponte, G. Gereffi, Gale Raj‐Reichert","doi":"10.4337/9781788113779.00005","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4337/9781788113779.00005","url":null,"abstract":"Technological and organizational changes have been crucial in transforming the way in which production is organized across time and space. The steam engine in the nineteenth century made transportation and manufacturing economical in ways that allowed the spatial separation of production from consumption (Baldwin, 2016). Although for much of the twentieth century production remained organized along vertically integrated firms, by the late 1970s a more flexible and spatially dispersed mode of production had taken hold based on slicing production into specific tasks and moving some of these out of the boundary of the firm through external contracting (Piore and Sabel, 1984). Information and communication technology (ICT) in the latter part of the twentieth century further facilitated the global outsourcing and offshoring of manufacturing activities (Dicken, 2007). This has led to the organization of economic activity in global value chains (GVCs) that are dispersed globally but governed centrally by ‘lead firms’ (Gereffi, 1994b; Gereffi, Humphrey and Sturgeon, 2005; Gibbon and Ponte, 2005; Bair, 2009a; Cattaneo, Gereffi and Staritz, 2010; Ponte and Sturgeon, 2014). The term ‘global value chain’ refers to the full range of activities that firms, farmers and workers carry out to bring a product or service from its conception to its end use, recycling or reuse. These activities include design, production, processing, assembly, distribution, maintenance and repair, disposal/recycling, marketing, finance and consumer services. In a ‘global’ value chain, these functions are distributed among many firms scattered around the world. In this context, ‘lead firms’ are groups of firms that operate at particular functional positions along the chain. Lead firms are able to shape what is done and by whom along the chain, at what price, using what standards, to which specifications and at what point in time they are delivered (Humphrey and Schmitz, 2001; Gereffi et al., 2005; Ponte and Sturgeon, 2014). GVC governance, therefore, is the set of concrete practices and organizational forms through which a specific division of labour between lead firms and other actors arise and is managed (Gibbon, Bair and Ponte, 2008). Understanding the changing dynamics of the global economy requires knowledge of how GVCs are governed and what distributional effects arise from different governance forms. The concept of GVC governance is based on the observation that value chains are rarely coordinated spontaneously through market exchange (Gereffi, 1994b; Gereffi et al., 2005; Gibbon et al., 2008). Instead, they are governed as a result of strategies and decision making by specific actors, usually large firms that manage access to final markets globally, but also at regional and national and local levels. In deciding how to manage trade and production networks in global industries, lead firms are faced with a number of choices. First, whether to make parts and components or provide ","PeriodicalId":250962,"journal":{"name":"Handbook on Global Value Chains","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132137858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More recently, however, the state–GVC nexus has attracted more explicit attention. Drawing on insights from GVC research, this paper highlights four roles of the state within GVCs – as facilitator, regulator, producer and buyer – and outlines key issues on the research agenda in relation to each role. While the facilitator role has received considerable attention and the regulator role is a growing focus, those of producer and buyer are relatively underexplored. The paper concludes that the contemporary reformulation of economic globalisation means the state–GVC nexus is, and will continue to be, especially significant in shaping development outcomes.","PeriodicalId":250962,"journal":{"name":"Handbook on Global Value Chains","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125320732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
