    Abstract In the developing world, the informal economy can account for as much as 80% of the population I focus on the urban component of informality, where both informal employment and informal enterprises are especially vulnerable to the pandemic-induced economic shock I explain the complex nature of informality, some of the reasons for its persistence and its interdependency with the formal economy, especially in the manufacturing sector, through global value chains (GVCs) Large firms (whether MNEs or domestic firms) sub-contract considerable activity to informal enterprises, but this is precarious in character I suggest the crisis provides the circumstances for greater active engagement with informal actors, by placing informal enterprises on a par with formal firms within industrial policy I propose integration and registration, as opposed to formalisation, and the provision of state support without taxation The role of the state is also crucial in matchmaking, creating incentives for GVCs to engage with informal actors systematically, and to reduce the transaction costs for informal actors in such engagement These actions are likely to provide benefits in the longer run, even if they prove costly in the short run

    Abstract In the developing world, the informal economy can account for as much as 80% of the population. I focus on the urban component of informality, where both informal employment and informal enterprises are especially vulnerable to the pandemic-induced economic shock. I explain the complex nature of informality, some of the reasons for its persistence, and its interdependency with the formal economy, especially in the manufacturing sector, through global value chains. Large firms (whether MNEs or domestic firms) sub-contract considerable activity to informal enterprises, but this is precarious in character. I suggest the crisis provides the circumstances for greater active engagement with informal actors, by placing informal enterprises on par with formal firms within industrial policy. I propose integration and registration, as opposed to formalization, and the provision of state support without taxation. The role of the state is also crucial in matchmaking, creating incentives for GVCs to engage with informal actors systematically, and to reduce the transaction costs for informal actors in such engagement. These actions are likely to provide benefits in the longer run, even if they prove costly in the short run.

    Abstract Intellectual property rights (IPRs) are of critical importance in international business. The implications for firm strategy and for policymakers are rarely aligned because the optimal level of IPR protection can be quite different from the country- and the firm-level perspectives. There is considerable heterogeneity in firm strategies, the spatial distribution of their innovation activities, and their IPR portfolios. There is still greater variation between countries, their IPR legislation and enforcement efforts, as well as their industrial and development policies. For firms, sustaining firm-specific advantages (FSAs) depends on their ability to create and extract rent from their knowledge assets, and this involves deliberate interfirm cooperation, careful location choices, and talent recruitment and retention. At the country level, the attractiveness of countries for MNEs is shaped by the provision of country-specific advantages such as IPR protection and its effective enforcement, but the kinds of IPR regimes that are optimal to attract inward investment can be disadvantageous for building domestic firm capacity, and vice-versa. Although firm IPR strategies and IPR regimes are clearly interlinked, the literature integrating across these two levels has been underdeveloped, and we propose a framework to guide future research.

    Abstract Overview: Global scientific collaboration to find a vaccine is not enough to end the pandemic. International cooperation is also necessary to produce a successful vaccine affordably and distribute it equitably worldwide. Commercial and national interests threaten to thwart the universal immunization needed to curtail the pandemic. International institutions such as the World Health Organization are essential to the solution.
