“…An increasing number of case studies have shown that access to a global production network is indeed associated with the acquisition of critical capabilities and high-quality goods. Analyses have been carried out in many sectors, including apparel (Gereffi , 1999 ), motorcycles (Fujita, 2011 ), agroindustry (Cafaggi et al, 2012 ), and the computer industry (Kawakami, 2011 ). In this section we provide additional systematic evidence showing that participation in production networks is associated with improved competencies and higher-quality goods.…”

“…Evidence of successful cases of learning within the chain can be found in many sectors, such as apparel (Gereffi , 1999 ), motorcycles (Fujita, 2011 ), agroindustry (Cafaggi et al, 2012 ), and the computer industry (Kawakami, 2011 ).

For example, Kawakami (2011) argued that "… Intel possesses the power not only to set standards but also to drive the chain dynamics by redistributing the valueadded in its favor". However, even the Wintelism did determine everything, the narrowly defined theoretical framework of D. Y.-R. YANG, Y.-C. CHEN GVCs provides very few conceptual tool to further explore such relevant "black box" (Wen & Yang, 2010).…”

The thesis gives prominence to the roles played by the lead firms and the platform leaders (such as Intel and Microsoft) in setting up such architecture (Borrus, 2000;Borrus & Zysman, 1997;Sturgeon & Lee, 2005;Kawakami, 2011;Sturgeon & Kawakami, 2011). For instance, emphasizing the dominant role of the Wintelism and the lead firms (HP, Dell, IBM, etc.…”
