Reviews

'Finally, a Handbook of global value chains. This collection establishes the state of the art in knowledge on the industrial form - the GVC - that has transformed capitalism for better and worse and which is at the centre of contemporary scholarship and policy debates on economic development, distributive justice and international trade. This is an essential collection of critical contributions that covers the micro and macro dimensions of the global value chain, including implications for gender equality, technological innovation and social activism. I guarantee that I (and my students) will be using this volume as a go-to reference book for years to come.' -- William Milberg, The New School for Social Research, US 'This is the book on global value chains. With contributions from many leading lights of the GVC approach, and rising star early career academics, it provides a comprehensive understanding of the analysis of power, governance and distributive outcomes of globalisation in trade and production, and identifies key challenges for GVC research in the 21st century.' -- Khalid Nadvi, University of Manchester, UK
