Abstract
In the globalization era, cost competitiveness alone will not be sufficient to guarantee further success. The China’s LICs faced a serious challenge between the top-down (global) and bottom-up (local) governance pressures. In order to remain competitive, there is a need for LICs to upgrade their activities and move up along GVC, and shall constantly pursue enhancement and optimization of value chain and developing their capabilities. To help overcome the constraints on LICs, the need to develop new and more effective governance strategies and policies are high priority. This paper also shows how LICs can break out of the “lock-in” which results form working for a small powerful GVC’s governors. It recognizes the GVC governance variance and opening up new opportunities for LIC.
Key words: Local Industrial Clusters (LICs), Global Value Chain (GVC), Governance
