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.
