Value chain analysis has been applied in various fields, from the time the concept of “value chain” was introduced by Porter in 1985. Several frameworks have emerged and have been used to study individual firms, entire industries, industry clusters, as well as global production networks. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief review of these frameworks, identify factors that influence the performance of value chains, and suggest areas for future research. Since there is a wide range of value chain literature, this paper focuses on a selective set of earlier works within the value chain model as conceptualized by Porter. The study takes note of the many dimensions and applications of value chain analysis, and shows that value chain analysis is an effective way to examine the interaction among different players in a given industry. The study further points out the shortcomings of the traditional or Porter view of value chain analysis.

Carbon neutrality has been suggested to overcome the global climate crisis caused by global climate change. Hydrogen energy is a major way to achieve carbon neutrality, and the developments and policies of hydrogen technology have been proposed to achieve this goal. To commercialize hydrogen energy resources, it is necessary to understand the overall value chain composed of hydrogen production, storage, and utilization and to present the direction of technological developments. In this paper the hydrogen strategies of major countries, including Europe, the United States, Japan, China, and South Korea will be analyzed, and hydrogen technologies by value chain will also be explain. This paper will contribute to understanding the overall hydrogen policy and technology, as both policy and technology are summarized.

This paper analyzes the impact of the recent change in global value chain on the productivity of manufacturing sectors and firms in Chungnam area using ADB MRIO. Forward participation significantly increases sector productivity in Chungnam area and backward participation affects the sector productivity after 2015. In the analysis for firm productivity in Chungnam area, GVC participation does not enhance the productivity of firms in Chungnam area. However, firms in the top 25% of productivity in 2007 improved their productivity with higher GVC participation and the productivity of firms in the top 25% of asset in 2007 was positively affected by forward pariticipation and negatively affected by backward participation. The productivity of firms that were in international market in 2007 was significantly worsened by GVC participation.

Purpose - This study discusses the effects of human capital in the formation of GVC linkages. We also investigate GVC intensity between Korea and ASEAN. Design/methodology - To solve the doubling-counting problem in evaluating comparative advantage, RCA has been re-computed using domestic value-added (henceforth RCA_VA) at the country-sector level instead of value of trade. The impact of human capital on GVC intensity was empirically analyzed by establishing a panel data set with four industries (ISIC Rev. 4) in eight ASEAN countries from 2005 to 2015 from OECD-TiVA and WDI. Findings - The empirical results show that human capital has a negative effect on GVC intensity in the agriculture and manufacture industries, while it has a positive effect in the service and information industries. The results do not mean that low human capital is a barrier and inefficient to GVC linkages. Low Value-added activities may be more profitable to some emerging countries. These findings suggest that it is important to accurately identify the competitive elements to increase gains from trade under the GVC. Also, it shows that comparative advantages can be misled by an RCA index evaluated in trade volume under the GVC. Originality/value - This study highlights the importance of human capital as a factor for the efficient formation of Global Value Chain (GVC). This study has different from the literature in analyzing the role of human capital in formation of linkage of the GVC. And we clarify the changing patterns of trade by removing the double-counting problem under the GVC.

Purpose - Semiconductors are a significant export item for Korea that is expected to continue to contribute significantly to the Korean economy in the future. Thus, the semiconductor industry is a critical component in the 4th Industrial Revolution and is expected to continue growing as the non-face-to-face economy expands as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, this paper aims to empirically investigate how semiconductors are imported and exported in Korea from a global supply chain perspective by analysing import and export data at the micro-level. Design/methodology - This study conducts a multifaceted analysis of the global supply chain for semiconductors and related equipment in Korea by examining semiconductor imports and exports by semiconductor type, year, target country, mode of transportation, airport/port, and domestic region, using import/export micro-data. The visualisation, flow analysis, and Bayesian Network methodologies were used to compensate for the limitations of each method. Findings - Korea is a major exporter of semiconductor memory and has the world's highest competitiveness but is relatively weak in the field of system semiconductors. The trade deficit in 'semiconductor equipment and parts' is clearly growing. As a result, continued investment in 'system semiconductors' and 'semiconductor equipment and parts' technology development is necessary to boost exports and ensure a stable supply chain. Originality/value - Few papers on semiconductor trade in Korea have been published from the perspective of the global supply chain or value chain. This study contributes to the literature in this area by focusing on import and export data for the global supply chain of the Korean semiconductor industry using a variety of approaches. It is our hope that the insights gained from this study will aid in the advancement of SCM research.

국내 방산수출 규모는 단기간 급성장하고 품목도 첨단 고가장비로 다양해졌지만 내수 위축은 물론 글로벌 경기 불황과 경쟁 심화로 최근 수출이 정체되고 있는 상황이다. 글로벌 시장의 무기 수입국들은 보다 다양해졌고, 변동성은 더욱 커졌으며, 글로벌 방산기업들 역시 기존 거래선 외 글로벌 부품공급망(GVC: Global Value chain)을 전 세계로 넓혀 나가는 추세다. 방산 중소기업이 국내 체계기업의 협력업체로 참여하는 수준에서 벗어나 특화된 기술력을 갖춘 경쟁력 있는 기업으로 성장하여 수출물량을 안정적으로 확보할 수 있도록 글로벌 방산기업의 부품공급망 참여를 통한 수출 활성화 지원책 마련이 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 국내 중소기업의 국제 부품공급망 진입실태 및 관련사례에 대한 일반적 고찰과 절충교역 이행가치가 높은 5개 글로벌 기업을 선정한 뒤 한국지사 및 해외 현지 조사를 통해 GVC 진입요건, 협력파트너 현황, 국내 중소기업의 GVC 진입에 대한 인식 등을 조사하였다. 또한 수출대상과 GVC 단계, 국내 중소 기업 수출경쟁력 수준 등을 종합적으로 고려하여 방산 중소기업의 GVC 참여를 촉진하기 위한 전략과 정부정책의 개선 사항을 도출하여 제시하였다.

국제가치사슬(Global value chain, GVC)구조가 심화되면서 중간재 무역의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 이러한 배경하에 글로벌 아웃소싱의 확대가 환경에 미치는 영향에 대한 많은 논의들이 최근까지 이어져왔다. 본 연구에서는 2004년부터 2014년까지 10개년 간 21개 제조업 부문을 대상으로 글로벌 아웃소싱이 환경에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 환경변수는 업종별 이산화탄소집약도를 사용하였고 글로벌 아웃소싱은 Feenstra and Hanson(1999)과 Amiti and Wei(2006)가 제안한 글로벌 아웃소싱 계측방법을 사용하였다. 글로벌 아웃소싱의 효과를 분석하기 위해 환경변화를 결정하는 요인들을 Copeland and Taylor(1994)의 이론을 기반으로 통제하였고 내생성 문제를 해결하기 위해 시스템 GMM 방법을 이용하였다. 분석결과 전체산업을 대상으로 분석했을 때 글로벌 아웃소싱의 확대가 환경에 미치는 영향을 식별할 수 없었다. 오염집약산업만을 대상으로 분석한 결과도 동일하게 나타났다. 그러나 중국과 아시아 개도국의 아웃소싱에 대해 분석한 결과는 글로벌 아웃소싱의 확대가 국내 오염수준 저감에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper analyzes how the current Global Value Chain (GVC) of East Asia has been established, and attempts to project the future trajectory of GVC under New Normal in the global trading system. For this purpose, the framework of Ideology-Technology-Institution nexus is presented with focus on the dynamics of interplay between ideology and technology, duly recognizing the dual-aspect of technology- a platform for business and also for national defense. The paper analyzes how the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) of the 1990s played a role of "facilitator" in shaping the GVC of East Asia, where China plays 'factory for final assembly' and the US plays 'the largest consumer'. Under New Normal, digital technology is likely to play the opposite role of "disrupting" the GVC of East Asia, unlike ICT. The paper explores the mechanism behind this great disruption. What is driving New Normal is the US-China power competition, seeking for dominance in East Asia and beyond. This paper argues that New Normal is not temporary shock, but will last for some time. Under this presumption, the paper presents three scenarios for the future trajectory of GVC in East Asia.

In recent years, the Indian market has gained worldwide attention in the global trading business environment. Korean companies are also seeking to enter the indian market, and their foreign trade investment strategy is based on the Global Value Chain(GVC). In this study, we examine difference from traditional investment strategy to GVC investment strategy in the age of 4IR(fourth industrial revolution) through using POLS model(pooled least square), FEM(fixed effect model), and REM(randomized effect model). Based on the analysis of 84 monthly data related to the FDI and international trade effects between Korea and India, the following results were found. As Korean companies increased their share of export to the Indian market and export to the Indian market, the number of new companies directly invested in overseas market increased. However, the amount of import into the Indian market was relatively low in relation to the number of new companies directly in overseas markets. As a result of analyzing the investment strategy of the GVC in India, the GVC has shifted from manufacturing to process upgrading to enter the GVC on Smile Curve.
