Outsourcing governance: states and the politics of a ‘global value chain world’ (2017, background): “…as in international trade theories, to a set of industrial transformations constructed within system-wide dynamics of coordination and control by economic and non-economic actors’ (Neilson et al. 2014: 1) – a process to which states, and the mobilisation of state authority, have been central.”
Toward a Dynamic Theory of Global Production Networks (2015, background): “…role as a heuristic framework in economic-geographic research and the wider social sciences (Hess and Yeung 2006b; Coe, Hess, and Dicken 2008b; Coe 2009, 2012; Neilson, Pritchard, and Yeung 2014), GPN 1.0 in many ways remains an inadequately developed theory of global production networks.”
Towards a typology of repositioning strategies of GVC/GPN suppliers: the case of functional upgrading and downgrading (2016, background): “(Neilson et al., 2014; Ponte, 2014) revealed the considerable versatility of the modes of governance, even within a single chain or network (Patel-Campillo, 2010; Horner, 2013; Ponte, 2014; Yeung and Coe, 2015).”
E-Commerce and Industrial Upgrading in the Chinese Apparel Value Chain (2018, background): “Moreover, GPN researchers are more explicit in their incorporation of state institutions in shaping the constitution of GPNs, while GVC/GCC tends to treat the state as a context for firm-specific action (Neilsen, Pritchard, and Yeung 2014).”
Regional worlds: from related variety in regional diversification to strategic coupling in global production networks (2020, background): “…new empirical insights into the innovative capabilities of key actors in GPN. Lastly, the conceptual questions of value creation, enhancement and capture remain crucial in the theoretical agenda of GPN studies and cognate social sciences (Coe & Yeung, 2019; Kano et al., 2020; Neilson et al., 2014).”
Global value chains, rising power firms and economic and social upgrading (2015, unknown): “For a comparison of the GPN and GVC literatures, see Sturgeon (2001, 2009) and Neilson et al. (2014).”
