The article compares changes in tendencies of value-added flows and the places held by the Central and Eastern European economies (11 countries: Visegrad countries, Baltic States, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Croatia, and Romania; CEE) in global value chains (GVCs) in manufacturing, services, and their subgroup—information and telecommunication (ICT) services, by relying on the trade in value-added data retrieved from the OECD’s Inter-Country Input–Output Database, available over the period 2005–2015. The objective of this study is to understand the role of these economies in international production linkages applying a value-added methodology. Therefore, the study discusses the role of CEE economies in global economy in terms of forms of participation of services, especially ICT services, in GVCs, including the process of “servicification” of manufacturing. This study led to the verification of two hypotheses: (1) the position of manufacturing in GVCs has been steadily weakening and (2) services, especially ICT services, can have a positive effect on participation of CEE economies in GVCs. The first hypothesis was confirmed by most of analysed countries. The other research question turned out not to be true for all CEE countries, but most of them proved this hypothesis.

中欧和东欧新时代开始:信息和通信技术服务在全球生产链中超越制造业

文章比较了中欧和东欧经济体(11 个国家:维谢格拉德国家、波罗的海国家、斯洛文尼亚、保加利亚、克罗地亚和罗马尼亚;CEE)在全球价值链 (GVC) 中的增值流动趋势变化和地位在制造业、服务业及其子类信息和电信 (ICT) 服务方面,依靠从 2005 年至 2015 年期间可用的经合组织国家间投入产出数据库中检索到的增值数据贸易。本研究的目的是了解这些经济体在应用增值方法的国际生产联系中的作用。因此,该研究讨论了中东欧经济体在服务参与形式方面在全球经济中的作用,尤其是 ICT 服务,在全球价值链中,包括制造业的“服务化”过程。本研究验证了两个假设:(1) 制造业在全球价值链中的地位不断减弱;(2) 服务业,尤其是 ICT 服务,可以对中东欧经济体参与全球价值链产生积极影响。大多数分析国家都证实了第一个假设。另一个研究问题并非适用于所有中东欧国家,但大多数都证明了这一假设。
