Abstract

Reducing the emission of carbon dioxide, the greenhouse gas with the largest impact on global warming, has become one of the most urgent issues in the fight against climate change. The industrial sector accounts for the largest amount of carbon dioxide emissions from production activities, with the steel industry accounting for a large proportion of these emissions. On the other hand, the signing ceremony for the RCEP agreement was held, and a new international division of labor is about to be established in East Asia. It is necessary to dynamically reexamine the international division of labor and the trade structure of the steel industry in Japan, China, and the Republic of Korea (ROK). Therefore, this paper analyzes from the perspective of the international division of labor. First, we analyze the intraregional and interregional structures of the international division of labor and the interdependence of intermediate goods in the East Asia region. Next, we analyze the structure of the international division of labor (by sector) and the corresponding interdependence in China, Japan, and the ROK. Furthermore, we analyze the interdependence of the “metal products” industry in China, Japan, and the ROK.
