1 विषयसामान्य प्रश्न
121. What is a global value chain (GVC) in the context of the textile industry?
A global value chain (GVC) in the textile industry describes how the different stages of producing textiles and garments are spread across various countries. This includes everything from growing cotton to designing, manufacturing, and selling clothes. Each stage can occur in a different country to maximize efficiency and minimize costs.
परीक्षा युक्ति
Remember that GVCs involve the fragmentation of production processes across countries. Think of the textile industry as a classic example for the UPSC exam.
2. How has the textile industry's global value chain evolved historically?
Initially, textile production was localized. The Industrial Revolution led to mass production in factories, concentrated in regions like England. In the 20th century, production shifted to countries with lower labor costs, such as Japan.
- •Localized production initially.
- •Shift to factories during the Industrial Revolution.
- •Relocation to low-labor-cost countries in the 20th century.
परीक्षा युक्ति
Focus on the key turning points: the Industrial Revolution and the rise of globalization.
3. What are the key stages in the textile global value chain?
The textile GVC includes raw material production (cotton farming), yarn spinning, fabric weaving/knitting, dyeing/printing, garment manufacturing, and retail distribution.
- •Raw material production (cotton farming)
- •Yarn spinning
- •Fabric weaving/knitting
- •Dyeing/printing
- •Garment manufacturing
- •Retail distribution
परीक्षा युक्ति
Memorize the sequence of stages to understand the flow of value in the textile industry.
4. How did the Multi Fibre Arrangement (MFA) affect the textile GVC?
The Multi Fibre Arrangement (MFA), which ended in 2005, significantly shaped the textile GVC by setting quotas on textile imports from developing countries.
परीक्षा युक्ति
Remember that the MFA restricted textile imports from developing countries, impacting their growth in the industry.
5. How does the textile GVC work in practice?
In practice, a company might source cotton from India, spin the yarn in Bangladesh, weave the fabric in China, manufacture the garment in Vietnam, and then sell the finished product in the United States or Europe. Each stage is chosen based on cost and efficiency.
6. What is the significance of the textile GVC for developing countries?
Developing countries often specialize in labor-intensive stages like garment manufacturing due to lower wages. This provides employment opportunities and contributes to economic development.
7. What are the limitations of the textile GVC?
Limitations include potential exploitation of labor in developing countries, environmental concerns related to dyeing and waste disposal, and vulnerability to disruptions in the supply chain, as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- •Labor exploitation in developing countries
- •Environmental concerns (dyeing, waste)
- •Supply chain disruptions
8. What are the challenges in implementing ethical and sustainable practices in the textile GVC?
Challenges include the complexity of the supply chain, the need for greater transparency, and the cost of implementing sustainable practices. Ensuring fair wages and safe working conditions across all stages is also difficult.
9. How does India's textile industry compare with other countries in the global value chain?
India has a strong presence in raw material production (cotton farming) and garment manufacturing. However, it needs to strengthen its position in design, branding, and high-value-added segments to compete effectively.
10. What is the impact of recent developments like the COVID-19 pandemic on the textile GVC?
The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted textile GVCs, leading to supply chain bottlenecks and increased costs in 2020-2022.
11. What is the future of the textile GVC, considering the rise of sustainable fashion?
The future of the textile GVC will likely involve more emphasis on ethical and sustainable practices, greater transparency in the supply chain, and increased use of technology to improve efficiency and reduce environmental impact. Growing consumer awareness of ethical and sustainable fashion is driving this change.
12. What are governments doing to promote domestic textile production and reduce reliance on imports?
Governments are implementing policies to promote domestic textile production and reduce reliance on imports. These policies may include incentives for local manufacturers, tariffs on imports, and support for research and development in the textile sector.
