PEREZ-IBANEZ, Javier. GLOBAL VALUE CHAINS: A BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REVIEW. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.51, pp.63-81. ISSN 0120-6346.  https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v22n51a4.

During the last thirty years, production of goods and services has undergone a relocation and fragmentation process worldwide. This new phase of productive organization was called global value chains. The studies framed in this theoretical framework focused on economic development (Upgrading) and the government of these chains (governance). The objective of this article is to systematize how global value chains have been studied to identify potential contributions of such theory to the understanding of this new phase of productive development. To achieve this purpose, academic publications from public institutions and study centers were analyzed. As a result, a deep state of the art on the subject was obtained.
