Abstract

The presented study considers and calculates using the most relevant data for the Russian economy the measure of Upstreamness, which reflects the average position of the industries in a representative value chain. This measure was used to demonstrate the main trends of Russian foreign trade in terms of position in global value chains. The values of Upstreamness obtained are also used to analyze the position of Russian firms in global value chains. The main conclusion of the work is that Russian enterprises tend to increase over time the number of stages of the production chain they are engaged, which contradicts the mechanisms prevailing in the literature, which indicate the desire of firms for specialization.
