Global value and wealth chains in contemporary capitalism: Editorial introduction
这篇导言提出“纠缠”概念，从无形资产与有形资产的相对重要性、主导企业的价值创造或财富积累策略两个维度，分析当代资本主义中价值捕获、积累与不平等的动态。
This introduction to a special section on global value chains and global wealth chains elaborates on the concept of entanglement as a way to understand dynamics of value capture, accumulation and inequality in contemporary capitalism. The authors first review the analytical framework they have proposed for analyzing entangled chains based on two dimensions: 1) the relative importance of intangible versus tangible assets; and (2) the primary strategy of lead firms – specifically, whether that strategy is oriented towards value creation or wealth accumulation activities. They then briefly discuss the four papers comprising this special section which collectively advance our knowledge of how production and finance are imbricated in the global political economy.
