Recensioner i media

'This exciting book adds … to the book on labour in global value chains (GVC), here addressing the capturing and creation of new rents through technological and organisational innovations and transfers. It also addresses the thorny policy problems of supporting change in internationally splintered stages of production-distribution. A valuable contribution to development policy studies, applied economics and business studies, it will interest a wide audience outside the world of GVC enthusiasts.' Barbara Harriss-White, University of Oxford
