原文:
Research on petitiveness of regional clusters of firms in the same and related industries has been dominated by a profoundly optimistic view, concerned far more about the integrative possibilities of dense works than the dysfunctional consequences of works. I argue that this approach, which draws selectively on the transaction cost, knowledge-based and institutionalist perspectives, is one-sided in its fundamental premises, focusing on the presumed benefits work homogeneity and coherence. It has led researchers to pay insufficient attention to the role of variations and imperfections in copying routines petencies as a basis of petitiveness. The evolutionary perspective calls into question mon view petitive work structures develop towards coherence and homogeneity. It views the cluster as a anizational system whose development is strongly influenced by variation generating processes at the micro-level. I discuss these processes, with special reference petitive advantage, and outline some of the challenges they imply for empirical research.
