ABSTRACT

In this study, we examine how firms’ positions (supplier, final, or both) in both global and domestic value chains (GVC and DVC) affect their productivity. This is said to be the first attempt in exploring the impact of the integration of firms on the GVCs on productivity generation in the Turkish manufacturing industry at the firm-level. The analysis is based on firm-level data obtained from the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat) and covers the period from 2003 to 2015. The data used in the analysis includes all firms employing 20 or more employees in the Turkish manufacturing industry. Our findings based on both fixed-effects and GMM estimations show that while supplier position on the domestic chain has a negative effect on productivity, the same position in GVC vanishes this effect. The final firm position in the GVC, on the other hand, provide more benefits to SMEs than to large-scale firms.

摘要

在这项研究中，我们研究了公司在全球和国内价值链（GVC 和 DVC）中的位置（供应商、最终或两者）如何影响他们的生产力。据说这是在公司层面探索公司整合对全球价值链对土耳其制造业生产力产生的影响的第一次尝试。该分析基于从土耳其统计局 (TurkStat) 获得的公司层面数据，涵盖 2003 年至 2015 年期间。分析中使用的数据包括在土耳其制造业雇佣 20 名或更多员工的所有公司。我们基于固定效应和 GMM 估计的结果表明，虽然供应商在国内链上的位置对生产力有负面影响，但在 GVC 中的相同位置消除了这种影响。另一方面，在全球价值链中的最终稳固地位，
