USMCA and Uneven Regionalized Protectionism: Automotive Industry in Mexico under US Corporate Control

Despite the growing literature insisting in showing the advantageous effects that the USMCA has for the Mexican industrial and labor development, this article seeks to offer a critical and historical explanation that helps to understand the causes that led to the momentum of the USMCA and the subordinate role that Mexico has played—and will continue to do so under this new trade arrangement—in the increasingly strengthened process of unequal regional protectionism, which has historically played against Mexico’s domestic industrial development. The main argument in this article claims that the new rules of origin in the USMCA will have a clear and differentiated impact on the automotive firms operating in Mexico, benefiting US firms on the eve of the protection they require in the face of the great technological changes and increasing competition among the global auto firms.

The geopolitics of technology standards: historical context for US, EU and Chinese approaches

Abstract This article provides a review of the historical trends that are shaping global competition for standard setting in emerging technologies. Specifically, it explores how the traditional rule-makers of international standardization, namely the United States and Europe, are responding to the rise of China in standard-setting. The article argues that three polities are adapting their standard-setting strategies to shifting power dynamics in the international technology order. To preserve its competitive advantage, the US is becoming more interventionist and proactive in setting technology standards. China has developed a long-term standardization strategy to bolster its domestic industrial development, increase its influence and reap greater profits from the process of rule-making. Finally, the EU is seeking a third way that strikes a balance between competition and cooperation to preserve values like interoperability, which have historically benefited its single market and the global economy at large. Our historical review shows that, while the three polities have different priorities and face distinct challenges, they all seem to converge towards a greater role for governments in standard-setting.

An innovative model of industrial policy implementation can ensure the long-term development of the national economic system and increase its competitiveness.

Vocational Education Agglomeration Promoting Innovation and Entrepreneurship Based on Spatial Dubin Model

Abstract Based on the spatial Dubin model, this paper theoretically discusses the influence of collaborative innovation on regional economic growth. The paper studies the industrial structure of enterprises by using the spatial Dubin method established by different regions and social and economic factors. It is found that collaborative innovation has a spillover effect on domestic industrial development both internally and externally. The regional migration of creative elements within the region mainly causes space overflow. And it has the characteristics of regional decline. This conclusion has specific guiding significance to the mechanism of enterprise collaborative innovation. This mode plays a positive role in promoting benign exchanges between regions and realizing industrial development and upgrading.

Main directions of the implementation of import substitution strategy in the industry of the Samara region

The economic war, the conduct of a special military operation in Ukraine, the aggravation of the negative geopolitical situation and total sanctions against Russia are currently the reasons for the preservation and development of state sovereignty, the organization and improvement of state policy in the field of import substitution. In addition to this, a complete ban on the supply of high-tech imported products, the withdrawal of foreign enterprises from the Russian market, created an unstable economic situation in the domestic markets of the country, in terms of substitution of imported products, the reorientation of the domestic economy to the markets of China and Southeast Asia. Under these conditions, under the influence of unfavorable large-scale factors from unfriendly countries, the role of the state in organizing the import substitution strategy in the industrial sector of Russia is expressed imperatively and represents the main factor guaranteeing the growth and development of national security of the economy. Assessing the scale of the negative consequences of sanctions and economic war, Russia has formed a new economic model for the functioning and development of domestic industry, based on an import substitution strategy and a state program to preserve sovereignty and replace imported analogues of products with domestic ones. The article reflects the main directions of the implementation of the import substitution strategy in the industrial complex of the Samara region, reveals the role of import substitution in the development of the internal market of the region and increasing, on this basis, the economic security of the Russian economy as a whole. A form of import substitution is proposed as a structural transformation of the industrial complex of the Samara region, consisting in diversification, activation of its innovative potential for the formation of competitive manufacturing enterprises and innovative development of the real sector of the regional economy. The necessity of implementing the state industrial policy of diversification aimed at increasing the production of domestic products on the basis of existing industrial enterprises is substantiated. The issues of production of domestic products and their testing on domestic markets are presented, the directions of ensuring the independence of the state from imported products and priority areas of import substitution policy are proposed.

Efektivitas Penerapan Kebijakan Subsidi Bahan Bakar Minyak

Fuel oil subsidies are the main alternative for governments in developing countries, especially fuel-exporting countries, to strengthen domestic industrial development. Through this subsidy policy, fuel oil can be accessed by the wider community at a relatively low price and can encourage various businesses. However, the implementation of this subsidy policy leads problems in the distribution of welfare. This study aims to demonstrate the negative effects of the fuel subsidy policy using qualitative methods. The fuel subsidy policy must be reviewed because it is not on target to help the poor, hoarding fuel stocks, scarcity of fuel stocks in the domestic market and unstable fuel prices in the country which ultimately disrupt various business activities.

Research on Centrifugal Blower Design and Optimization Method Based on Mean Camber Line Optimization and CFD

In recent years, with the development of domestic industry and the progress of production technology, the centrifugal blower, as a piece of nuclear equipment in the industry, needs to be upgraded and optimized to improve its performance. Thus, based on the mean camber line optimization and CFD, this paper carries out the design and aerodynamic optimization for a centrifugal blower, and a corresponding 3D aerodynamic optimization platform is built. Then the effects the mean camber lines have on the aerodynamic performance of the centrifugal blower are further analyzed. The results show that the stall margin and efficiency of the centrifugal blower are improved, going up to nearly 8.5% and 1.5%, respectively, after the optimization, while the total pressure ratio basically remains unchanged. The optimized mean camber lines can control the Mach number and restrain the separating flow more effectively, which contributes to improving the carrying capacity of the blower and verifies the advancement of the optimized platform. This provides a novel method for the design and optimization of centrifugal blowers.

Policy mixes and policy feedback: Implications for green industrial growth in the Swedish biofuels industry

Policymakers have increasingly voiced an ambition to combine the transition to a climate-neutral society with a “green” domestic industrial agenda. In recent years, innovation systems scholars have advanced the understanding of the evolution of industries around renewable energy technologies as well as the role of policy feedback (and indeed politics) surrounding the development of domestic green industrial development policies. To take a step towards combining these literature streams, the purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of policy mixes and policy feedback in the emergence of domestic green industries. This is achieved in the empirical case of biofuels in Sweden, and the findings show that policy feedback dynamics created difficulties in aligning the national policy mix with the technology and industrial developments in the country. The resulting political uncertainty predominantly hampered the scaling up of domestic production capacity, while R&D and import of biofuels instead could grow strong. Based on this empirical case, a process model is developed to explain the role of policy feedback in the development of domestic industries, thus demonstrating how the growth of domestic industries is driven by the interplay of policy effects and various feedback processes. The findings suggest that future research into the role of policies in “green” domestic industry growth should devote more attention to the dynamics driving the co-evolution of policy, technology and industry structures.

Sustainable development of Russian industry in the context of a macroeconomic shock and new industrial policy

Aim. The presented study aims to analyze the sustainable development of Russian industry in the context of a macroeconomic shock.Tasks. The authors describe the manifestations and causes of the 2022 macroeconomic shock; assess the impact of the macroeconomic shock on the current level of industrial production in Russia; develop recommendations to ensure the sustainable development of domestic industry based on the implementation of a new industrial policy.Methods. This study uses the methods of comparative and retrospective analysis, generalization, scenario and situational forecasting, and expert assessment.Results. The turbulence of economic processes both in Russia and globally has increased dramatically since the end of February 2022. This gave rise to a situation that can be described as a macroeconomic shock, i.e. a significant and transient change in one or more macroeconomic parameters, disturbing the economy's equilibrium and causing a transition to a new quasi-equilibrium state. At the first stage, the macroeconomic shock caused a decline in industrial output. At the second stage, the decline was genereally stopped, but industrial restructuring was initiated, negatively affecting critical and technologically complex production. The analysis of available data clearly indicates a correlation between the magnitude of production decline in certain industrial sectors and the level of their import dependence. At the same time, the potential of traditional import substitution has largely been exhausted. Therefore, the authors propose a model of a new industrial policy for implementation. Its essence is that the state should organize the production of competitive industrial products rather than ensure it. This is a radical paradigm shift. The expressed conceptual idea will require further in-depth study in case it is adopted. The authors believe that this will happen shortly, and the scientific community will join the constructive discussion and elaboration of the ideas presented in the article.Conclusions. The modern Russian economy in general and industry in particular is developing in the context of a macroeconomic shock caused by the sanctions of the collective West. The production decline caused by the shock is gradually diminishing. However, there is a negative industrial restructuring caused by high import dependence of some industries. To remedy the situation, the idea of a new industrial policy based on a more active role of the state in the economy is proposed.

The impact of market integration on the quality of export products: A study based on manufacturing enterprises

Since the reform and opening up, China's economic level has been continuously improved, and the manufacturing industry, as one of the three major industries, has also achieved rapid development. Since joining the World Trade Organization (WTO), China's foreign trade has also maintained rapid growth for many years. However, in recent years, China's manufacturing industry has been facing the problem of large but not strong. China's foreign trade also urgently needs to solve the problem of large volume but insufficient competitiveness. The covid-19 trade friction has been escalating, the globalization of globalization and the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia have affected the development of the global economy to varying degrees, and the uncertainty of the international environment has increased. Since 2020, China has proposed to gradually form a new development pattern with the domestic cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other, so as to cultivate China's new advantages in participating in international cooperation and competition under the new situation. In such a severe environment, to implement the instructions of the CPC Central Committee, realize the high-quality development of domestic industry and foreign trade, promote market integration and improve the quality of export products is the only way to improve China's comprehensive strength. Based on this, this paper explores the impact of market integration on the quality of export products and analyzes the impact channels from the enterprise level, and calculates the level of market integration and the quality index of export products by using China Statistical Yearbook, China industrial enterprise database and China customs database. Based on the existing literature, this paper puts forward the following hypotheses: Based on manufacturing enterprises, (1) there is a nonlinear relationship between market integration and export product quality, which is first enhanced and then inhibited, showing an inverted "U" shape. (2) Market integration will improve the quality of export products by promoting human capital. (3) Market integration will affect the improvement of export product quality by promoting scientific research investment. (4) The impact of market integration on the quality of manufacturing export products is significant in non-state-owned enterprises. (5) the impact of market integration on the quality of manufacturing export products is more significant in eastern and western cities. In order to comprehensively test the impact of the above-mentioned manufacturing industry on the quality of China's manufacturing industry, this paper selects 4596 domestic manufacturing enterprises' benchmark and regression data in 2014, and makes an in-depth analysis of the impact of the above-mentioned manufacturing industry on the quality of China's manufacturing industry, In order to provide some theoretical support for improving the quality of China's export products through market integration.

ОБЩЕСТВЕННО-ПОЛИТИЧЕСКИЕ ВЗГЛЯДЫ СМАГУЛА САДУАКАСОВА

Smagul Saduakasov is an outstanding statesman of Kazakhstan in the period of 1920-1930s, who made a significant theoretical contribution to the development of the Kazakh socio-political thought of the twentieth century. S. Saduakasov in his works, in fact, was one of the first to formulate the national interests of the Kazakh people and the whole of Kazakhstan, outlined those key priorities of socio-economic and cultural development, in accordance with which the Kazakh people and the state of Kazakhstan should develop. Itwas S. Saduakasov who officially spoke out in the public press against maintaining the economic status of Kazakhstan as a “raw material appendage” of the industrialized regions of the European part of the USSR, proposing to develop local Kazakh industry based on a rich resource base. In addition, S. Sadvokasov paid special attention to the training of professional technical and humanitarian specialists from among the Kazakh youth, which, together with the development of domestic industry, was supposed tolead the people and the country to the path of building a modern state.

Governing Cross-Border Data Flows: International Trade Agreements and Their Limits

In modern international competition and cooperation, digital trade rules centered on the cross-border flow of data have become a competitive advantage for countries. Under the guidance of commercial freedom, the United States chooses to actively promote the free flow of data across borders. The European Union has placed the protection of personal data rights before the cross-border flow of data through the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and developing countries generally reserve space for industry policy interpretation. As one of the world’s largest economies, facing the needs of domestic industrial development and the pressure of international systems, China’s cross-border data flows’ policy is to ensure data flows under the premise of security, protection of personal information, seek international coordination of rules, and the freedom of transmission. The key question, therefore, is how to facilitate interoperability or find a middle ground among the divergent approaches in order to avoid the fragmentation of the digital trade system. The article suggests that a thin and narrowly scoped WTO agreement on e-commerce rules on cross-border data flows with sufficient policy space to accommodate different needs, policy preferences and priorities, and local contexts via legitimate exception provisions would be a welcome movement.

Effect of Trade Openness and Real Exchange Rate on Economic Growth in Tanzania

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of trade openness and real exchange rate on economic growth in Tanzania. Secondary time series data collected annually for consecutive 47 years since 1970 to 2016 were analyzed. The study used the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) to assess the long-run and short-run effects of trade openness, real exchange rate, and foreign direct investment on Real Gross Domestic Product. The results from analysis reveal the evidence on one hand that trade openness has a positive significant effect on economic growth in both the short and long-run, but real exchange rate and foreign direct investment have a positive significant effect in the long run on the other. As it was estimated that with trade openness more trade is developed in terms of exports and imports which in turn boosts the economy. The study recommends that, there is the need for country to support the domestic industrial development to produce more goods and services.
