The Research On The GVC Position Of Service Sector And Its Factor Of Influence

Recently,with the world economic structure changing,the process of industry changes goes fast.The service sectors in developing countries move faster than ever in trying to raise their position in global value chain(GVC).According to the past literature,we found that much of the researchers draw their focus on GVC positon and its influencing factor only from manufacturing sector mainly based on added-value analysis.However,research targeting at service industry seems rare.As a result,how the position of service sector from different country changes in a certain period and why that changes in varies ways become the first point of this paper.Firstly,this paper examined the previous research on the measurement of GVC position and how the GVC position is influenced in macro level.Given the importance that manufacturing sectors generate,the influence on improving GVC positon of service sector has been strongly analyzed.According to the Coopman's GVC positioin index(KPWW)and Antras' Upstream index based on input-output table of 43 countries from 2000 to 2014,how the service sector of each country engages in the global value chain specialization can be illuminated and compared.We found that GVC position index of service sector from developed countries has an advantage over developing countries.In that,knowledge-intensive service sector performs predominately but goes steadily during that period.The GVC positon from developing countries move upward clearly and knowledge-intensive service sector increases more rapidly.However,labor-intensive service sector didn't yield a good outcome.Secondly,the upstream index of service sector from developed countries assembled in low position,such as America,Japan,which keep a certain gap with labor-intensive sector.Countries from European Union have a relatively similar upstream index trend.On the country,the service sectors in China and Russia were closed connected with upper-stream sector,especially their capital-intensive service sector,which exactly imply the two countries,industrial strength and need in investment.Nevertheless,the corresponding GVC position index throws a contrast with upstream index,and it also signify capital-intensive service input is unable to create more fortune.In the empirical analysis on GVC position index of service sector,we found that manufacturing sector's influence on service sector is positively related to GVC position index,which is also examined by regression of panel data.In the three set of regressions,except for the open level exerting a negative impact,national development level,infrastructure level,financial development and foreign investment utilization perform a positive influence on GVC position index,which are tally with what we have expected.At last,this paper made a conclusion and put forward some suggest on how to raise GVC positon index.
