Global production networks and the analysis of economic development
Open accessAbstract
This article outlines a framework for the analysis of economic integration and its relation to the asymmetries of economic and social development. Consciously breaking with state-centric forms of social science, it argues for a research agenda that is more adequate to the exigencies and consequences of globalization than has traditionally been the case in 'development studies'. Drawing on earlier attempts to analyse the cross-border activities of firms, their spatial configurations and developmental consequences, the article moves beyond these by proposing the framework of the 'global production network' (GPN). It explores the conceptual elements involved in this framework in some detail and then turns to sketch a stylized example of a GPN. The article concludes with a brief indication of the benefits that could be delivered by research informed by GPN analysis.

“As part of these efforts, Henderson et al.'s (2002) GPN 1.0 schema emphasized the complex intra-, inter-, and extra-firm networks involved in any economic activity, and elaborated on how these are structured both organizationally and geographically.”

In the citing paper
“The GPN concept was developed in the late 1990s by a group of researchers in economic geography, and emerged from a growing dissatisfaction with existing theories of economic development that failed to account for the increasingly complex, networked nature of production activities, which spanned across national borders and led to uneven development in different regions and countries (Coe & Yeung,”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
