Linking Local and Global Economies The Ties that Bind [Hardcover]

Clusters of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) have to adapt continually to a fast changing environment. This new book, containing contributions on countries ranging from Italy and Mexico to China and India, recognises the disparity between conditions in these countries and poses some interesting questions about what might be termed post cluster globalisation. This book will be of interest to students, academics and policy makers in the fields of economic geography, international business and entrepreneurship.Carlo Pietrobelliis Full Professor of Economics at the University of Rome III, Italy.
