Abstract

KATAISHI, Rodrigo  and  MORERO, Hernán. Taxonomies, Technological Opportunities, and Global Value Chains in Developing Countries: a Literature Review and a Conceptual Approach Proposal. Investig. desarro. [online]. 2020, vol.28, n.2, pp.168-220.  Epub Nov 04, 2021. ISSN 0121-3261.  https://doi.org/10.14482/indes.28.2.330.91.

This work aims to generate a conceptual contribution by discussing two key dimensions of the development literature: the role of technological taxonomies and the emergence of global value chains. It is proposed that the discussion about structural change needs to be related not only to the taxonomic approach, but also to that of GVC. The applied methodology is based on a mixed protocol of structured review and literature synthesis. The contributions of this work propose an analytical scheme capable of highlighting the weaknesses of treating both approaches in isolation, concluding that an enriched view of the phenomena of structural change requires the fusion of both views, in order not to incur in incomplete recommendations or evaluations.

Keywords : Sectoral classifications; Technological taxonomies; Global Value.
