Abstract

En este artículo se aborda el fenómeno de las Cadenas Globales de Valor desde la perspectiva del empleo, tomando el caso de algunos países latinoamericanos y observando con mayor detenimiento al sector Servicios. Para esto se utiliza una matriz de insumo-producto internacional la cual se combina con datos de empleo sectorial. Los resultados indican que el empleo generado por la demanda externa (final o intermedia) se origina principalmente en el sector Servicios, lo cual invita a prestar mayor atención a los efectos de las políticas comerciales sobre el mismo, el cual se ha considerado tradicionalmente como un sector de no-transables. Por otro lado, y como se ha mostrado desde otras perspectivas, se presenta evidencia acerca de la escasa participación de estos países en cadenas globales de valor. ****** This article deals with the phenomenon of Global Value Chains from the perspective of employment, taking the case of some Latin American countries and observing the Services sector more closely. For this, an international input-output matrix is used, which is combined with sectoral employment data. The results indicate that the employment generated by external demand (final or intermediate) originates mainly in the Services sector, which invites to pay more attention to the effects of trade policies on it, which has traditionally been considered as a non-tradable sector. On the other hand, and as has been shown from other perspectives, evidence is presented about the scarce participation of these countries in global value chains.
