Summary This book examines China's new development policies, which seek to reposition the country from an export platform for an array of low-cost consumer goods to a technological leader in advanced manufacturing. Focusing on the post-2010 period, the book shows how China's central government programs and reforms ("upgrading from above") are coupled with varying local government policies, firm strategies, and domestic economy shifts ("upgrading from below") to drive this development. Understanding the goals and challenges of China's multifaceted industrial policies could not be more important in the current context of global trade tensions and major disruptions in GVCs. Gary Gereffi is Emeritus Professor of Sociology, Director of the Global Value Chains Center at Duke University, and an originator of the GVC framework. Together with leading Duke GVC Center researchers, Penny Bamber and Karina Fernandez-Stark, the trio has contributed extensively to promoting GVC analysis and its use in policy circles. They publish and consult broadly on competitiveness issues, industrial upgrading, and economic development.
