The decision of a country to join regional trade agreements (RTAs) is guided by its expected welfare gains, though potentials of both trade creation and trade diversion cannot be ruled out through such arrangements. The slow progress of the World Trade Organization negotiations has created a demand for mega-regional trade agreements in the last decade, but the recent US and Indian pullout from Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), respectively, raised a question on their attraction. One of the major underlying objectives of RTAs is to deepen intra-bloc participation in regional value chains (RVCs) and International Production Networks (IPNs), through adoption of reformed rules of origin (ROO) provisions and mutual recognition agreements (MRA) for standard harmonization. This article, through an analysis of the RVC–IPN participation of the RCEP countries, attempts to understand to what extent the Indian pullout from RCEP can be linked to its unfulfilled expectations. The observations indicate that, relatively modest participation in the RVCs, declining domestic value added content of exports and the associated adverse trade balance scenario have critically shaped the Indian standpoint. The evolving Indian orientation towards trade remedy mechanism can be viewed in this backdrop. The analysis concludes that in the post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) period, the Indian decision to consolidate domestic manufacturing sector needs to acknowledge the reality rather than being guided by the rhetoric.

区域贸易伙伴关系相互需求的奥秘:印度在RCEP区域价值链中的经验

一个国家加入区域贸易协定(RTAs)的决定以其预期的福利收益为指导,尽管不能通过这种安排排除贸易创造和贸易转移的潜力。在过去的十年中,世界贸易组织(WTO)谈判进展缓慢,对大型区域贸易协定产生了需求,但最近美国和印度分别退出了跨太平洋伙伴关系(TPP)和区域全面经济伙伴关系(RCEP),提出了一个关于他们的吸引力的问题。区域贸易协定的主要基本目标之一是通过采用标准的原产地规则(ROO)规定和相互承认协议(MRA)来加深集团内部对区域价值链(RVC)和国际生产网络(IPN)的参与。协调一致。本文,通过分析RCEP国家对RVC-IPN的参与,试图了解印度从RCEP中退出的程度可以与其未实现的期望联系起来。观察结果表明,相对而言,参加RVC的人数相对较少,出口的国内增值含量下降以及相关的不利贸易平衡状况,已严重影响了印度的立场。在这种背景下,可以看出印度对贸易救济机制的发展方向。分析得出的结论是,在2019年冠状病毒后疾病(COVID-19)期间,印度关于巩固国内制造业的决定需要承认现实,而不是受到言辞的指导。试图了解印度从RCEP撤军的程度与其未实现的期望之间的联系。观察结果表明,相对而言,参加RVC的人数相对较少,出口的国内增值含量下降以及相关的不利贸易平衡状况,已严重影响了印度的立场。在这种背景下,可以看出印度对贸易救济机制的发展方向。分析得出的结论是,在2019年冠状病毒后疾病(COVID-19)期间,印度关于巩固国内制造业的决定需要承认现实,而不是受到言辞的指导。试图了解印度从RCEP撤军的程度与其未实现的期望之间的联系。观察结果表明,相对而言,参加RVC的人数相对较少,出口的国内增值含量下降以及相关的不利贸易平衡状况,已严重影响了印度的立场。在这种背景下,可以看出印度对贸易救济机制的发展方向。分析得出的结论是,在2019年冠状病毒后疾病(COVID-19)期间,印度关于巩固国内制造业的决定需要承认现实,而不是受到言辞的指导。出口的国内增值含量下降以及相关的不利贸易平衡情景严重影响了印度的立场。在这种背景下,可以看出印度对贸易救济机制的发展方向。分析得出的结论是,在2019年冠状病毒后疾病(COVID-19)期间,印度关于巩固国内制造业的决定需要承认现实,而不是受到言辞的指导。出口的国内增值含量下降以及相关的不利贸易平衡情景严重影响了印度的立场。在这种背景下,可以看出印度对贸易救济机制的发展方向。分析得出的结论是,在2019年冠状病毒后疾病(COVID-19)期间,印度巩固国内制造业的决定需要承认现实,而不是受言辞的指导。
