Does Participating in Mining Global Value Chains Lead to Lower Industrialization?
Does Participating in Mining Global Value Chains Lead to Lower Industrialization?

Abstract

This study investigates whether participating in forward global value chains in mining industries leads to a decline in manufacturing industry by using EXIOBASE-3 database. Our empirical results indicate a positive relationship between forward Global Value Chain (GVC) participation in coal and crude petroleum and the growth of value-added in the manufacturing industry. In contrast, participation in GVCs for non-ferrous metal ores, iron ores, and stone, sand, and clay are found to have a significant negative effect on the growth of manufacturing value-added. Overall, our findings indicate that participation in mining forward GVCs presents more risks to the manufacturing industry compared to involvement in fossil fuels.
