Resumen
WEKSLER, Guido. China's path in the New International Division of Labour: a Comparative Analysis Based on Foreign Trade Indicators. Econ. y Desarrollo [online]. 2023, vol.167, n.1 Epub 10-Mar-2023. ISSN 0252-8584.
The article takes up critically the New International Division of Labor thesis as a framework for understanding China's development process within the general development trajectory of the East Asian region. Based on technological complexity of exports data, I study the particularity of the Chinese case, contrasting its trends mainly with those of other countries in the region. Among the main results, it is highlighted that China's development process is not only unique in terms of its scale, but also in terms of the type of activities that the country manages to develop competitively. China continues to be the leading exporter of many simple products, but in recent decades it has strengthened its predominance in productions of greater technological complexity. Finally, some hypotheses are put forward about the factors that drove China´s path.
