The political economy of technological capabilities and global production networks in South Africa’s wind and solar photovoltaic (PV) industries (2017, positive): “Second, and relating to the theme of competitive dynamics within GPNs (Coe & Yeung, 2015), we have examined how dominant international ﬁ rms in renewable energy manufacturing and technology supply are attempting to reinforce their market power in South Africa.”
Regional worlds: from related variety in regional diversification to strategic coupling in global production networks (2020, background): “In what is generally known as the GPN perspective (Coe et al., 2004, 2008; Coe & Yeung, 2015, 2019; Yeung, 2009a, 2018a), geographers have conceptualized REGIONAL STUDIES the spatial connections between ‘globalizing’ processes, as embodied in geographically dispersed production networks coordinated…”
An integrative typology of global strategy and global value chains: The management and organization of cross‐border activities (2020, background): “Additionally, the role of extra-MNE actors that are nonfirm institutions like state agencies and non-governmental organizations, is also instrumental in shaping GVC relationships and power dynamics (see Coe & Yeung, 2015, 2019; Hendersen, Dicken, Hess, Coe, & Yeung, 2002; Yeung, 2016).”
Functional specialisation in trade (2018, background): “…by U niversity of G roningen user on 05 February 2019 endowments with economic and social institutions as well as locational factors and positioning in global networks that ultimately determine comparative advantage (Coe and Yeung, 2015; Baldwin and Evenett, 2012).”
Digital labour and development: impacts of global digital labour platforms and the gig economy on worker livelihoods (2017, background): “…workers, the existence of international markets for labour, and the ongoing search for new outsourcing destinations (see Palugod and Palugod, 2011), has resulted in organisational, technological, and spatial fixes for virtual production networks of services and money (Coe and Yeung, 2015).”
Towards an economic geography of FinTech (2020, background): “…or enhance value through improving manufacturing processes, labor efficiencies, acquiring new technologies or generating cost savings through changing supplier networks (Coe and Yeung, 2015), firms are developing new forms of competitive advantage, for example, in financing or data intelligence.”
E-Commerce and Industrial Upgrading in the Chinese Apparel Value Chain (2018, methodology): “The GPN methodology is a broad relational framework, which seeks to go beyond the valuable but more restricted GCC and GVC formulations (Coe and Yeung 2015).”
Rethinking Path Creation: A Geographical Political Economy Approach (2019, methodology): “Its status as a key constituent element of our framework reflects the market imperative (Coe and Yeung 2015) of regional path creation; in a capitalist economy, path creation is dependent on the generation and circulation of value through the sale of commodities in markets (Harvey 1982).”
Power in global value chains (2019, positive): “Actors thus ‘draw upon different forms of power in order to take on an advantageous position in GPNs that favor their value creation, retention, and capture’ (Coe & Yeung, 2015, pp. 66–67).”
Towards economically dynamic Special Economic Zones in emerging countries (2018, neutral): “…low-tech standard manufacturing industries, such as textiles, based on a traditional cost advantage, the emergence of Global Production Networks (GPNs) also contributed to this development (Baldwin, 2011; Coe & Yeung, 2015; Henderson, Dicken, Hess, Coe, & Yeung, 2002; Iammarino & McCann, 2013).”
Global Production Networks, Foreign Direct Investment, and Supplier Linkages in the Integrated Peripheries of the Automotive Industry (2018, background): “In contrast, dependent linkages are typical of the assembly platform type of structural couplings with GPNs, which are characterized by the dependency of firms and regions on external actors (Coe and Yeung 2015).”
