With the continuous change of the global economic structure and the intensification of international trade competition,the global value chain based on manufacturing is quietly undergoing new changes and forms a new environment.Especially in the era of sustained economic downturn in developed economies with the United States and Europe as the dominant countries,China,India,Russia,Brazil,South Africa and other five BRICS countries have huge potential for economic development and complementary advantages in economic and trade cooperation..The industrial advantage of the BRICS countries is precisely in the manufacturing industry.At the same time,measuring the competitiveness of manufacturing exports under the global value chain system can no longer be based on traditional trade statistics methods.Instead,it must consider comprehensively the research methods for the value-added of the import and export of intermediate products and final consumer goods.This has a very realistic meaning for fully understanding the true level of international competitiveness of the manufacturing industries of the BRICS countries and understanding the path of transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry and achieving the overall competitiveness of China's manufacturing industry.This paper takes the global value chain division of labor model as the background,and explores the method of measuring the added value of manufacturing exports.Based on the measured results,the Display Comparative Advantage Index(RCA)is used as a measure of export competitiveness based on the Display Comparative Advantage Theory.The indicators provide a comparative analysis of the export competitiveness of the BRIC economies.At the same time,the national competitive advantage theory is used as a framework to select the factors affecting the export competitiveness of manufacturing,through comparison of the differences in the various influencing factors of the BRIC countries,and the impact of constructing a multinational panel model on the export competitiveness of the BRIC countries' manufacturing industries.Factor indicator.The following conclusions are drawn: The export competitiveness measurement based on the increase in the value of manufacturing exports shows that China has performed most prominently in the labor-intensive input-intensive sub-industry and the capital-intensiveinput-intensive sub-sector.In 2014,it was always ahead of India,Brazil and Russia.Its performance in capital-intensive investment-intensive manufacturing sub-sectors was inferior to that of Brazil and equal to that of India and Russia.In the labor-intensive manufacturing sub-sector,per capita capital was The impact of container terminal throughput on the scale of development of related supporting industries is most significant;for capital-intensive input-intensive manufacturing sub-sectors,the proportion of R&D investment in science and technology and the throughput of container terminals have shown significant effects;For knowledge-and technology-related inputs into the intensive manufacturing sub-sector,per capita capital,R&D investment in science and technology accounted for the largest share of GDP. |
