日本在全球市场的出口和制造业增加值份额大幅下降，而中国的份额则大幅上升。本文基于我们对日本公司离岸外包的原始调查以及这些国家的出口和制造业生产的统计数据，研究了日本公司最近离岸外包的增加与日本、中国、东亚国家、美国和欧洲国家出口构成、国民生产结构以及制造业增值的国际分布的变化之间的关系。它还讨论了由于工资差异和制度因素而导致的离岸外包的净成本节约将如何影响日本离岸外包的可持续性。
Japanese shares of export and manufacturing value-added in the global market have declined significantly, whereas those in China have risen sharply. This paper examines how recent increases in offshoring by Japanese firms relates to the changes in the composition of export, the structure of national production, and the international distribution of manufacturing value-added in Japan, China, East Asian countries, the United States, and European countries, on the basis of our original survey of Japanese firm's offshoring and the statistics of export and manufacturing production of these countries. It also discusses how the net cost saving of offshoring due to wage differentials and institutional factors will affect the sustainability of Japanese offshoring.
