Abstract
In recent years, with increased access to relevant data and statistics, especially inter-country input-output tables and micro-level data within companies, as well as advancements in computer data processing capabilities for managing these vast datasets and information and communication infrastructure, the possibility of efficient joint use of databases for analyzing foreign trade has been provided. The aim of this paper is to implement the decomposition method of Borin and Mancini (2023) on Iran's gross exports using a source-oriented approach and the exporter's perspective as a baseline analysis for decomposing the value added in Iran's gross exports of economic activities. The contribution of this paper to the Iranian economic literature can be summarized in the following three subjects: Firstly, it uses one of the inter-country input-output database (ICIO) for the year 2016, considering Iran, for empirical documentation. Secondly, among the existing theoretical frameworks, it focuses on the latest theoretical framework proposed by Borin and Mancini (2023) with a source-oriented approach and the country's perspective for economic activities in Iran. Thirdly, it provides a structural interpretation of Iran's economy for the year 2016 and can be used by researchers and policymakers regarding the global value chain of Iran's economic activities.
