The Belt And Road

The Belt and Road (abbreviated as B&R) creates opportunities for the economy and trade development and the improvement of national relations of the Belt and Road countries. Development of service trade plays an important role in the Belt and Road. Henan Province takes the opportunity of B&R to develop the international service industry and makes some achievements. In the new era of development, analyzing the trade competitiveness of international service in Henan Province under the background of the Belt and Road is of great significance to help Henan Province recognize its own strengths and weaknesses in service trade development and make targeted improvements. Studies have shown that the share of international market, revealed, advantages of comparative competitiveness trade and service trade openness of service trade in Henan Province under the background of the Belt and Road are constantly improving, but the overall development level is still low and slow development occurs. We utilize the concept of fuzzy embedded along with Analytic Network Process (ANP) which makes it suitable for managing vagueness of the linguistics information of assessment system. Therefore, in order to further improve the international competitiveness of service trade in Henan Province, it is necessary to optimize the international market share, competitiveness, and degree of openness. Specifically, it is necessary to transform and upgrade the traditional service trade industry, continue to expand the breadth and depth of service trade openness, strengthen the talent team building to improve the quality of employees, and promote the brand construction of service industry to enhance the industry’s development potential.

The Relationship

Intensive globalization of production processes along with active internationalization of companies have created new opportunities for developing countries to participate in global value chains (GVC). Participation in GVCs makes it possible to analyze the contribution of individual industries to world trade at the level of countries and sectors.Aim. This paper aims to assess the growth of Russia’s participation in international service trade over the past years in a number of non-material sectors of the economy from the perspective of upgrading in GVCs and the associated positive dynamics in value adding processes.Objectives. The author examines the dynamics of Russia’s participation in service industries; analyzes the relationship between innovation activity and different types of participation in GVCs; identifies the current trends in the dynamics of Russia’s participation in the GVCs of non-material industries.Methods. This study uses the generalized least squares method to perform a regression analysis of panel data form 10 service industries for 2005–2015 and analyze the relationship between different types of Russia’s participation in the GVCs of service industries and innovation activity.Results. The relationship between innovation activity and different types of participation in GVCs is statistically proven.

And Control

This article compares two neo-liberal education reform activities that are not often studied in tandem: alternative teacher certification in the USA, as explored through Teach for America, and the growing international service learning movement. Guided by the Movement for Black Lives’ call for a world where those “most impacted in our communities control the laws, institutions, and policies that are meant to serve us,” the authors explore the ways in which programs’ neo-liberal justifications obscure the authority, history, and agency of the communities they purport to serve, while convincing people outside of the community that those within are benefitted. The comparisons drawn highlight the ways in which deficit orientations permeate different local and global contexts to perpetuate and normalize privatization and the wresting of control from local communities. In making this comparison, the authors aim to better understand what these programs have in common: a white supremacist world view at once unstated and pervasive, which reinforces harmful ideas about what it is to respond to the purported needs and desires of others, not expressed in their own terms. This globalization of “helping” may increase the difficulty of those targeted by such “help” to speak in their own terms.
