  • Economic and social upgrading in global production networks: problems of theory and measurement William Milberg Deborah Winkler Economic development has increasingly become synonymous with “economic upgrading” within global production networks (GPNs). Yet, while there has been much research on connecting economic upgrading with economic growth and international trade, there has been less analysis of the relationship between economic and “social upgrading”, i.e. improvements in the wages, conditions, rights, gender equality and economic security of workers in GPNs. Focusing on developing countries, this article reviews the ways in which economic and social upgrading are measured and scrutinizes the theoretical connection between these two dimensions of upgrading. The authors conclude with a brief discussion of policy implications. 10.1111/j.1564-913X.2011.00120.x DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1564-913X.2011.00120.x publication.journalArticle
