Geopolitical decoupling and global production networks: the case of Ukrainian industries after the 2014 Crimean annexation
研究了2014年俄罗斯吞并克里米亚后，乌克兰航空航天、国防和电子工程行业与俄罗斯脱钩并重新融入欧盟和亚洲生产网络的模式，按企业在生产层级中的位置分析了脱钩与再耦合的差异。
Abstract This study investigates the decoupling of Ukrainian aerospace, defense and electro-engineering industries resulting from the Russian Crimean annexation in 2014. Conceptually, we contribute to global value chain/global production network research by developing the notion of geopolitical decoupling, thus augmenting the existing 2-fold typology. Moreover, the article elaborates a typology of recoupling. Empirically, we investigate patterns of decoupling from Russia and recoupling via alternative production networks as well as patterns of decoupling/recoupling according to the position of companies in the production hierarchy. We found a neat pattern of decoupling from Russia according to tier but profoundly different dynamics of recoupling with the European Union and Asia.
