Produktinformationen zu „A Life Cycle for Clusters? “
This book studies the determinants of cluster survival by analyzing their adaptability to change in the economic environment. Linking theoretic knowledge with empirical observations, a simulation model (based in the N/K method) is developed, which explains when and why the cluster's architecture assists or hampers adaptability. It is found that architectures with intermediate degrees of division of labor and more collective governance forms foster adaptability.

Rezension zu „A Life Cycle for Clusters? “
Aus den Rezensionen:"... Kerstin Press betrachtet aus betriebswirtschaftlicher Perspektive und mit systemwissenschaftlichen Methoden die Fähigkeit von Clustern, den Wandel ihrer Umwelt durch eigenen Wandel zu bewältigen. ... In ... analytischen Abschnitten ihrer Arbeit geht die Autorin souverän mit der umfangreichen Clusterliteratur um und kann mit einer klaren Argumentation die wesentlichen Wirkungszusammenhänge aus unterschiedlichen Theoriekulturen aufeinander beziehen. ... Die inhaltlichen Überlegungen von Press zu den Anforderungen an Simulationsmodelle bleiben überzeugend ..." -- Christoph Scheuplein, in: Zeitschrift für Wirtschaftsgeographie, 2008, Vol. 52, Issue 2-3
