Abstract

By taking the textile and apparel value-added exports data of 43 economies as the research sample, the social network analysis method is used to measure the global textile and apparel value-added exports network structure. The results show that the world textile and apparel value-added trade network is uneven, China has the widest range of trading partners, and the breadth of trading partners is growing over time. Germany and Italy have a stronger ability to control trade among other economies, and China’s ability to control trade with other economies is generally average, but the gap between China and Germany or Italy has narrowed significantly. China’s core degree has risen sharply. The trade networks are concentrated in a small number of core zone countries. The small group located in China is characterized by contraction.
