How to Grow with Developing Countries? Globalizing Corporate Activities and Domestic Economy in Japan

1. Further globalization for growth • Manufacturing activities are still important for the Japanese
economy. • Although the fear of de-industrialization exists, opposition to
globalizing corporate activities is very weak in Japan. – People intuitively know that outward foreign direct investment is
beneficial for Japan to introduce the Asian dynamism. • Empirical studies show that production networks have actually
generated domestic employment and economic activities; have brought in stability and robustness rather than fragility.
• Although some uncertainty exists in China and others, the dominance of East Asia for manufacturing activities has substantially strengthened in the past decade and will continue.
• Crucial to improve location advantages of Japan in order to effectively set up division of labor with developing East Asia; essential part to the 3rd arrow of Abenomics, which works with aggressive FTA strategy (TPP, RCEP, Japan-EU FTA, and others).

2. Production networks in East Asia • East Asia as a factory of the world
– Production networks in the manufacturing sector, particularly machinery ind. – Fragmentation and agglomeration
• Conceptual differences from usual trade – Quick and high frequency transactions – Coordination matters – Movements of goods and beyond
• Theoretical underpinning – The fragmentation theory (Jones and Kierzkowski (1990))
• Production blocks and service links – Two-dimensional fragmentation (Kimura and Ando (2005))
• Geographical distance and disintegration, explaining the formation of industrial agglomeration
• Work with new economic geography (Baldwin, Forslid, Martin, Ottaviano, and Robert-Nicoud (2003))
– The 2nd unbundling (Baldwin (2011)) • International division of labor in terms of production processes and “tasks” • Movements of goods, ideas, technology, capital, and technicians (cf. the 1st unbundling)

The 2nd unbundling, i.e., international division of labor in terms of production processes and tasks, has developed since the 1980s. The 2nd unbundling in the manufacturing sector is most advanced in East Asia.

3. Production networks and international policy environment
• Policy reform in developing countries to further activate production networks – Three kinds of costs in fragmentation; two-
dimensional fragmentation – High-level FTAs and development agenda

• Physical connectivity (hard and soft logistics/ICT infrastructure development)
• Liberalization of production-supporting services
• Investment liberalization
• Upgrading infrastructure services such as electricity supply and EPZs

formation of industrial
agglomeration)
• Business matching between multinationals and local firms
• Reducing transaction cost in economic activities

4. Delaying de-industrialization on the developed country side
• Japanese manufacturing firms that extend operations in East Asia relatively enlarge domestic employment and operations, no matter whether in normal periods or under crises. – Ando and Kimura (2012a, 2013a, 2012c) – Hijzen, Inui, and Todo (2007)
• After the GFC, some sign of narrowing the scope of domestic manufacturing activities is observed though. – Ando and Kimura (2012b, 2012c)

5. Stability and resiliency against macro shocks
• Production networks may work as a shock transmission channel.
• At the same time, transactions in production networks are more stable and more resilient than other transactions. – Trade in machinery parts and components within
East Asia is less likely to be interrupted and more likely to recover (Ando and Kimura (2012b, 2012c)).

6. Conclusion • Further activating international production networks as
an essential part of growth strategy. – Expand and deepen production networks in East Asia – Improve location advantages of Japan to cater some
economic activities in the 2nd unbundling • R&D, pilot/mother plants, big plants with huge investment,
production supported by industrial agglomeration, processes with patents and black-boxed technologies
• Aggressive FTA strategy (TPP, RCEP, Japan-EU FTA, …) – Trigger for structural reform in Japan – International rule making for further activating
international production networks, together with improving location advantages of Japan
