Abstract:

Cassava-based industry in Jember Regency had good potential to be developed. The development could be done by forming industrial clusters. Cassava-based industrial clusters could be developed through determining potential locations. The study aimed to provide information about determining the location of the cassava-based industrial cluster development in Jember Regency. The study was conducted using the location quotient (LQ) method and the scalogram method. The results showed that the sub-districts in Jember Regency had potential locations for developing cassava-based industrial clusters, such as Kaliwates Sub-District, Patrang Sub-District, and Sumbersari Sub-District. The three sub-districts had advantages compared to other sub-districts in terms of the concentration of LQ values produced by cassava-based products. Scalogram results showed sub-districts in the highest service center hierarchy, i.e. Kaliwates Sub-District, Patrang Sub-District, and Sumbersari Sub-District. All three sub-districts had complete facilities compared to other sub-districts so that they could become centers of economy and trade. Based on the results of the LQ method and scalogram, the location of the cassava-based industrial cluster development in Jember Regency was determined in Kaliwates Sub-District, Patrang Sub-District, and Sumbersari Sub-District. Keywords: cassava, determination, development, location, industrial cluster

Abstract:

- The aim of the paper is to examine the technological districts or clusters phenomenon as an evolution of the traditional industrial district. We analyses the case of the Cambridge technology district finding that it has much in common with the Italian manufacturing districts. We also examine a case of a proto district, i.e. an area that might or might not develop in district, the proto district of Turin, trying to assess the differences with Cambridge. The comparison highlights the relevance of the same factors that have also led to the emergence of Italian industrial districts: cultural approach, knowledge transfer, social capital and institutions (formal and informal).Parole chiave: Distretti industriali, Distretti tecnologici, Cambridge, Torino.Keywords: Industrial district, technological district, Cambridge, Torino.

Abstract:

The object of this research is the innovative and industrial clusters of constituent entities of the Central and Northwestern Federal Districts of Russia that received Federal support. The subject of this research is the projects of innovative and industrial clusters of constituent entities of the Central and Northwestern Federal Districts of Russia that received Federal support. Special attention is paid to the types of cluster projects, their thematic focus and distinctive characteristics in different constituent entities of the Central and Northwestern Federal districts. On the one hand at, the studies are aimed at meticulous examination of the types and topics of cluster projects for each constituent entity of the indicated Federal Districts, while on the other – at generalization and comparison of the projects fpr each Federal District. The novelty of this work consists in the assessment of regional differences in the structure and focus of cluster projects based on the analysis of existing types of innovative cluster projects, which were supported by the Ministry of Economic Development, as well as industrial clusters included in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation. The analysis of cluster projects of the considered innovation clusters of the Central and Northwestern Federal Districts, which received support of Ministry of Economic Development, and industrial clusters, supported by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, demonstrated that they can be conditionally divided into two types of projects – of entrepreneurial and infrastructure focus. As a result of the conducted research, it was established that in the Central Federal District nine clusters from seven regions of the Russian Federation have received federal support; while in the Northwestern Federal District – eight clusters from three regions of the Russian Federation. A large proportion of infrastructure projects is concentrated in Moscow, Lipetsk, Arkhangelsk and Saint Petersburg; the projects with entrepreneurial focus – in Kaluga; projects on development and modernization – in the Komi Republic; projects on research and development of new products, services and methods of their production (transfer), as well as new production processes – in Arkhangelsk Region and Saint Petersburg.

Abstract:

Literature on eco-parks and eco-clusters has emphasized the opportunities for the coupling of local economic development and sustainability, going beyond firms’ green strategies to include also supply chains and local networks of firms. Studies have described the conditions and policies for the development of new sustainable economic activities in specific areas based on the industrial ecology approach. In contrast, little attention has been given to analysing how existing industrial districts are facing the chances of the new competitive pressures related to sustainability. The paper investigates the drivers and the evolutionary paths of industrial districts towards environmental sustainability. The empirical analysis is based on qualitative case studies of two Italian industrial districts specializing in the production of leather (Arzignano) and tiles (Sassuolo). Managerial and policy implications are provided.

Abstract:

Subject. This article deals with the simulation technologies based on the principles of stochastic optimization. They can bring a significant financial effect in the planning of investment development of both individual innovation and industrial clusters and federal districts of the country. Objectives. The article aims to investigate the mechanisms of inter-cluster cooperation within a single district. Methods. For the analysis, we used a stochastic optimization model in view of economic, financial, information, and logistics inter-cluster cooperation within a single federal district. Results. The considered stochastic optimization model of economic, financial, information, and logistics inter-cluster cooperation shows that the increase in fixed investment does not always cause population growth in the federal district regions. Conclusions. The use of a digital twin mechanism of inter-cluster cooperation can help avoid premature unreasonable public policy management decisions regarding the further development of innovation and industrial clusters.

Abstract:

Industrial clusters and special economic zones are key areas of focus for industrial policy makers who are aiming to expand the industrial base and increase competitiveness. Thus, the role of development of industrial clusters in the productivity improvement of manufacturing firms merits attention. We use the firm-level Census of Manufacturing Industries (CMI) and Directory of Industries (DOI) datasets to empirically investigate the relationship between agglomeration and firm level total factor productivity for different sectors in Punjab, Pakistan. Our findings suggest that there is a correlation between localization, urbanization and total factor productivity of firms in the Punjab. However, the relationship varies by sectors, necessarily pointing industrial policy towards sector-specific recommendations.

Abstract:

This paper responds to the recent paper by Hjalager (2000) which analyses tourism destinations in Europe within the framework of the industrial districts model (Piore and Sabel, 1984). Hjalager finds that despite tourism destinations having many of the identifying characteristics of industrial districts, there are elements of these destinations that defy the theory, which hamper their ability to cooperate in destination development and promotion. This paper suggests the use of Porter's (1998) cluster model as an extension of the industrial district model and as a broader analytical framework for measuring the success of tourism destinations. Two regional tourist destinations outside Europe are analysed within this framework. The authors find that the cluster model is a suitable analytical framework and that tourism destinations in the ‘New World’ are likely to be quite receptive to working cooperatively to develop their product.

Abstract:

Under the premise of coordinated procurement bilateral and multi-issue negotiation, adaptive negotiation strategy has become an essential factor for multiagent conflict resolution. This paper studies an adaptive negotiation strategy based on selective integrated learning, which effectively improves negotiation. First, take the suppliers and purchasing companies in the cluster supply chain as the research objects and analyze the characteristics of multilateral negotiation of collaborative procurement. Secondly, the support vector machine algorithm performs adaptive learning for each evaluation data set to estimate the concession range. On this basis, remove the few submodels that perform poorly, recombine the calculation weights, and establish a multiagent clustered supply collaborative procurement negotiation model. The simulation experiment proves the feasibility of the adaptive negotiation strategy and the effectiveness of the adaptive coordination strategy based on selective ensemble learning proposed in this paper from the aspects of concession range prediction error rate, prediction accuracy rate, and negotiation utility.

Abstract:

During the last decades, industrial districts have been at the forefront of academic and policy-making debate as important players of the economic development of small and medium sized companies in many countries. Nevertheless, a number of factors have strongly damaged these networks and questioned their competitiveness. Literature suggests that district governance is a proper solution to these issues and interprets this tool as an effective guide for development and changes of industrial districts. However, yet to date, the research on the governance of industrial districts is still sparse and very fragmentary. Furthermore, it presents a strong multidisciplinary breadth that prevents the identification of a comprehensive picture of the academic field. On the basis of these premises, this review study combines bibliometric and cluster analyses of scholarly articles published until March 2016 in order to identify research trends and describe the structure and the evolution of this research field over the last 27 years. The paper has implications for theory and practice. First, it systematizes and consolidates the literature on industrial district governance. Moreover, it highlights the evolutionary pattern of the research and identifies unexplored/underexplored issues that scholars should address. Finally, it proposes additional avenues to guide future efforts of policy makers.

Abstract:

Objects redevelopment methods of the “gray belt” - industrial areas surrounding the historical district of St. Petersburg, Russia - have been considered. Information about 45 objects located in different administrative districts of the city was collected. Factors of physical wear (wear of floors, walls, roofs, types of building structural system) have been chosen as a criteria for clustering. As a result of the study, SOMs with different learning parameters were created as a result of the study. Energy efficiency calculations for two clusters were made with the selection of modern materials. Recommendations for the reconstruction according to the parameters of physical wear are given.

Abstract:

The paper investigates the role spatial agglomeration has in affecting firm mortality of industries. In particular, the role of variety and specialization is addressed, along with the extent to which industrial clusters can be retained industrial districts. Empirical evidence is provided for a large panel of Italian provinces and manufacturing sectors, over the period 1995-2007. Urbanization economies, rather than localization ones, significantly diminish firm mortality of industries at the local level. The same holds true for industrial variety, even far from the specialization core. Industrial districts, instead, are neither safe nor dangerous places for firms, unless variety is controlled for. Preliminary evidence is also provided by the serial and spatial autocorrelation of firm' death and start-up rates.

Abstract:

This article analyzes the causes for the long-term success of the Barcelona (Spain) and São Paulo (Brazil) automobile industry clusters. Comparative evidence suggests that both clusters emerged in the early twentieth century through the formation of Marshallian external economies. Nevertheless, neither Barcelona nor São Paulo reached mass automobile production before 1950. The consolidation of the clusters required the adoption of strategic industrial policy during the golden age of capitalism. This policy succeeded in encouraging a few hub firms to undertake mass production by using domestic parts. The strategic policy also favored these leading corporations transferring their technical, organizational, and distribution capabilities, which in turn amplified the advantages of the clusters. Local institutions did not make a significant contribution.

The paper substantiates the theoretical foundations of the formation of agricultural territorial-industrial cluster associations, the mechanism of their effective functioning and ensuring the competitiveness of integrated business entities. The structural model of the regional association of agro-industrial clusters and cooperatives is justified. The proposed model of regional cluster integration includes industry-specific product clusters. It is proposed to create an agricultural service cooperative at the village level, and a multifunctional service cooperative at the district level.

Abstract:

Subject. This article deals with the issues related to the use of digital twins in order to manage innovation and industrial clusters and the liaison between them. Objectives. The article aims to develop a digital twin model of inter-cluster cooperation within a Federal district of Russia. The Volga (Privolzhsky) Federal District is considered a case study. Methods. For the study, we used a multiple non-linear regression method and a fast simulated annealing (FSA). Results. The article offers and describes a designed digital twin model of inter-cluster cooperation mechanism. Conclusions and Relevance. When reallocating investment and human resources within one federal district, the interests of the population of innovation and industrial clusters should be taken into account, as only just an increase in fixed investment does not always lead to the growth of the region's population. The use of the digital twin model of inter-cluster cooperation mechanism will help avoid premature unreasonable management decisions of the public-policy level regarding the further development of innovation-industrial clusters.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the analysis of industrial clusters created in the period from 2016 to 2019. At the wherein, considered as clusters included in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia and having the opportunity to receive direct state financial support, so and emerging clusters, which generally can count on the support of regional authorities in the framework of the program of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia to support small and medium-sized businesses. At present, the solution to the problem of the creation, existence of clusters and their financial support from the state is connected with the expediency of their development in strategically important sectors of the economy. The purpose of the research is to analyze the clustering process of strategically important sectors of the economy that determine the economic development of the Siberian Federal District. The study is based on the development of official documents on the creation and further support of clusters, as well as state programs and strategies for the socio-economic development of the subjects of the Siberian Federal District. The analysis focuses on the structure and branch orientation of the clusters under consideration. The authors showed that the structure and branch orientation of the cluster primarily determines its further development.

Abstract:

One of the key debates in the literature on small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) in developing countries has to do with the role that local industrial districts, or so-called industrial clusters, play in the promotion of CSR in those countries. While there is now an embryonic literature on this subject, we lack systematic, integrated analytical frameworks that can improve our understanding of the role that governance of clusters play in addressing CSR concerns in SMEs in developing countries. This article develops such a conceptual framework drawing on the literatures on cluster governance, CSR, SMEs, and environmental management (EM) as they relate to the developing countries. The authors argue that environmental improvements in SME clusters can be achieved through three basic types of cluster governance: legal enforcement, supply chain pressure, and voluntary engagement in CSR. The proposed framework is an attempt to show how each type of cluster governance is likely to induce different responses in cluster-based SMEs. These responses are related to stages of CSR in which SMEs engage, the barriers to EM they face, the types of EM practices they use, the climate change strategy types they use, and the kinds of benefits that accrue to SMEs from engagement in CSR. The authors put foward a framework that can be useful for both academics and practitioners as they seek to reflect on the interconnectedness of these themes from a research, policy, and practice perspective.

This article examines the geographical effects of industrial clusters on the business survival (BS) of information technology (IT) companies in China. The authors aim to find the differences of BS among inside and outside of the clusters in four different regions by using the methodology of Cox Proportional Hazard Model. The authors find that large sized IT clusters in the Haidian district of Beijing and the Pudong district of Shanghai have higher risks of business withdrawal (BW) than their surrounding areas, whereas the medium-sized cluster in the Nanshan district of Shenzhen and medium-sized IT cluster in the Binjiang district of Hangzhou does not show significant risks compared with their surrounding areas.

Full text

Abstract:

In this study the international trajectories of mature district evolution are investigated as a special case of institutional change, and a theoretical model for their evolution is proposed. This model is based on the idea that international growth and re-positioning represent the fundamental alternative to district sterilization and decline, in a framework where global markets provide the major pressure for change or decline but could also provide new opportunities for renewal. Alternative paths emerge from the combination of trigger events due to globalization and district leaders' behaviour: disembeddedness, re-embeddedness and multiple embeddedness are proposed here as the three main outcomes of mature district evolution. The latter constitutes a new construct introduced in this study in order to explore the possibility that districts relate themselves to global space creating similar systems abroad and/or establishing ties with existing systems, each one representing both a local network and a node of a global network.

Abstract:

Parachurch organizations are Christian, heavily evangelical Protestant, 501(c)(3) public charities focused on providing religious goods and services outside of any congregational or denominational sponsorship. The parachurch sector in the United States has been growing rapidly in recent decades, yet this growth has been highly uneven across communities. Many communities have very few parachurch organizations, while a few exhibit incredibly higher concentrations of them than would be expected based only upon their religious composition. Using IRS records, we isolate communities with the greatest concentrations of parachurch organizations, and then, drawing upon ideas developed in studies of industrial districts, we address this puzzle by exploring four of those communities, which we refer to as spiritual districts: Tulsa, Oklahoma; Nashville, Tennessee; Colorado Springs, Colorado; and Washington, D.C. We utilize interviews with organizational leaders and archival records to attempt to account for the makeup of and dynamics of each of the four unique clusters of parachurch organizations, concluding with a discussion of how understanding spiritual districts can contribute to greater understanding of the phenomenon of industrial districts.

Subject. This article deals with the issues of placing and locating the information and logistics center of the Federal District's clusters. Objectives. The article aims to create a technology to identify the center of innovative industrial clusters, which would ensure their effective economic, financial, information, and logistics cooperation. Methods. To solve the problem of location of the information and logistics center of clusters in order to anticipate the evolution of the Federal District, we used simulation modeling algorithms, genetic algorithm, and the simulated annealing and pattern search methods. Results. These methods have been tested for the Volga (Privolzhsky) Federal District of the Russian Federation. As a result of analysis, modeling and calculations, it turns out that the information and logistics center of the Volga (Privolzhsky) Federal District should be the City of Kazan, the Republic of Tatarstan. Conclusions and Relevance. The deployment of the information and logistics center for the Volga (Privolzhsky) Federal District in Kazan can significantly reduce the transaction costs associated with the regulation of information and transportation flows within the Federal District under study. This will reduce the financial costs in the District and increase the synergistic effect of a large innovation system uniting innovation and industrial clusters in a large area of the entire Federal District. The additional synergies will help the governmental structures and their experts conduct a better policy of economic and financial foresight of the evolution of the Volga (Privolzhsky) Federal District.

Abstract:

Clustering is high on the agenda of policy makers these days. Much of the attention has stemmed from the apparent success of firms linked together in a Porterian mould in specific regions. Hence the range of examples from the traditional industrial districts in Italy, the innovative milieux in France and Switzerland, and Silicon valley in the USA. The clusters agenda has moved on from consideration of spatial agglomeration issues to discussions on the convergence of technologies, skills, and resources, learning and knowledge, and interconnectedness between disparate industries resulting from convergence and learning opportunities. In the complex web of dynamic socialization and technological sophistication that characterizes clusters, a relatively new player, the Internet, has started to redefine cluster-based interconnectedness. Paradoxically, the Internet both challenges the role of space and geography in clusters and reinforces the value of human interaction between customers and suppliers, buyers and producers, and between consumers and sellers in defined spaces. The ‘net’ effect is often the creation of a new space of virtual interconnectedness for both physical buying and selling and intangible value generation in a ‘new economy’.

Abstract:

Purpose – The primary purpose of this study is to examine the relationships among a firm’s industrial cluster involvement, organizational learning and its ability to successfully adapt to external environment. Design/methodology/approach – Field survey research method was used, and data were collected from 943 high-technology companies in the USA, China, Taiwan and Sweden. Multiple regression analysis, as well as mediation test, was conducted to analyze the data. Findings – The study finds that being positioned in an industrial cluster enhances a firm’s learning and further leads to a firm’s desired adaptive outcomes. Research limitation – Using self-reported data could be a potential limitation of this study. It would be preferable to have other forms of data for a study. Further, cross-cultural comparisons are needed to enhance our understanding in this multicultural setting. Practical implication – The findings provide business executives, as well as policymakers, a new way of thinking in respect to how to develop holistic learning practices and improve inter-firm trust to appropriately adapt to the fast changing environment. Originality/value – The major contribution of this study is an initial attempt to provide a comprehensive approach in analyzing a firm’s industrial cluster involvement. Further, the study attempts to empirically examine learning and cluster involvement in relation to organizational adaptation.

Abstract:

The relevance of the work presented in the article is due to the need to use an integrated approach to supporting cluster entities from the standpoint of regulatory, financial and infrastructural support for their functioning. This also explains the choice of research topics. The aim of the work is to analyze the features of the organization of regulatory, financial and infrastructural support of cluster entities in the subjects of the Siberian Federal District, using the example of industrial clusters entered in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that based on the results of a comparative analysis of the studied clusters, conclusions are drawn regarding the clusters of the Siberian Federal District as a whole. The research methodology is based on the inductive method - from private to general. The analysis carried out in the work showed, on the one hand, the comparative sufficiency of the infrastructure support of cluster formations of the Siberian Federal District, but, on the other hand, the uneven distribution of financial support in its individual regions.

Abstract:

A major objective of the government during the Great Recession has been severely to restrict public sector real wage growth. One potential advantage of performance-related pay schemes is that they naturally offer greater wage responsiveness to fluctuations in the business cycle. Based on evidence from engineering and allied industries during the Great Depression we show that piecework wages exhibited more flexibility than their timework equivalents. We compare and contrast southern/midland engineering districts of Britain with northern districts. The former region was dominated by piece-rated workers and by modern sections of the industry, such as vehicle and aircraft manufacture. Time-rated work predominated in northern districts where older sections – for example, marine and textile engineering – were clustered‥

Abstract:

This article is devoted to assessing the level of specialization by means of localization and per capita production of industrial products by industry in the Central Federal District. The article considers the concept of "localization" and concludes that the increase in the number of localized production facilities in the country, has a favorable effect on the functioning of the economy. The approaches and methods currently used to determine the localization of industrial production are described. The article presents an example of calculating the coefficients of specialization of industrial sectors on the example of the subjects of the Central Federal District with the interpretation of the obtained indicators. On the basis of the calculated coefficients of specialization we assess the possibility of building industry clusters on the territory of the regions of the CFD. The relationship between the level of specialization and clusters is described. A comparison is presented and the relationship between clusters and ecosystems as the most perfect form of clusters is shown.

Abstract:

Eastern Uttar Pradesh has a number of mills including large as well as small and ancillaries units because of availability of sufficient amount of sugarcane in this area. It has fertile plain which is highly suitable for cultivation of sugarcane, but many factors related to sugarcane cultivation as well as sugar mills have pushed the sugar industry to be agglomerated at some places which ultimately brought regional variation in distribution patterns and grouped in some clusters. This paper analyses the distribution pattern and clustering of sugar industry in eastern Uttar Pradesh. The study is based on primary as well as secondary data including number of industrial units, capital investment and involved employment. Out of total 30 working mills, 25 mills make clusters occupying eight districts, i.e., Kushinagar, Deoria, Gorakhpur, Mahrajganj and Bahraich, Balrampur, Gonda, Basti. These clusters are located in the Saryupar plain as well as Tarai region which show that sugar industry is exclusively developed in intensive sugarcane production areas.

Abstract:

Topicality. World experience in regional development shows that the level of spatial development of regional economies is closely linked to their competitive advantages. In a market economy, when choosing the best region for investment in various fields of activity, a significant influence on decision-making by business structures has the availability in this region of the necessary conditions for doing business - a developed financial and credit sector, commercial organizations, economic and legal institutions, market -information structures, foreign economic organizations, etc. In this connection, there is a need to study the spatial organization of the region's economy in terms of possible strengthening of competitive positions. One of the factors of increasing competitiveness is the implementation of the cluster approach. The relevance of cluster formation in Ukraine is clearly growing, especially in the agro-industry.Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the feasibility of creating an agro-industrial cluster in the Kodym district of Odessa region. It will help to solve topical issues of socio-economic development of the district, stabilize and preserve the dynamics of economic development and raise the standard of living of the population of Kodym district.Research results. The formation of agro-industrial clusters in the region is a complex process, with visible results being achieved in just a few years. However, such associations have a positive impact not only on individual enterprises in the cluster structure, but also on the economy of the region as a whole, as three sectors interact: business, institutions and government. An analysis of the Western experience of the emergence of viable clusters shows that better and faster results can be obtained when the formation of a cluster becomes the focus of the targeted activities of all stakeholders. On the example of the agro-industrial cluster, an attempt was made to integrate into one chain of interconnected activities from production to the final product in a specific territory and to ensure its sustainable socio-economic development. To this end, the prospects and adaptability of the cluster formation were evaluated and the favourable and restraining factors for the development of the agro-industrial cluster in the Kodym region were determined. The participants of the Kodym agrarian cluster are identified and the model of interaction of the enterprises of the Kodym district within the Kodym cluster is presented.Conclusion. The article substantiates the feasibility of creating an agro-industrial cluster on the example of the Kodym district of Odessa region. Formation of agrarian cluster will allow stabilization and growth of production not only of the agro-industrial complex of the district as a whole, but also of individual participants of the cluster. Based on the cluster formation, a strategy will be formed and implemented, along with this will improve the financial status of all cluster members.

Abstract:

In both developed Western nations and developing countries, economic growth was based on the development of industrial districts, which were much more organized and institutionalized in modern Japan than economist Alfred Marshall had described. Local trade associations played an important role in enhancing Marshallian externalities, arising from the ease of imitating improved ideas and transacting unfinished products among clustered enterprises by facilitating joint actions in the supply of public goods, such as through the creation of local district brands and through the efficient provision of business information. These activities were clearly beyond the scope of agglomeration economies. This article examines the case of Kiryu, one of the best-known silk weaving districts in Japan.

Abstract:

The paper presents the results of an international study of creative industry policies and strategies, based on a survey of public-sector creative city initiatives and plans and their underlying rationales. As well as this survey and an accompanying literature review, interviews were carried out with senior policy-makers and intermediaries from Europe, North America, Africa and south-east Asia. The paper considers the scope and scale of so-called new-industrial clusters in local cultural and creative quarters and sub-regional creative hubs, which are the subject of policy interventions and public—private investment. The semantic and symbolic expansion of the cultural industries and their concentration in once-declining urban and former industrial districts, to the creative industries, and now to the knowledge and experience economy, is revealed in economic, sectoral and spatial terms. Whilst policy convergence and emulation are evident, manifested by the promotion of creative spaces and industry clusters and versions of the digital media and science city, this is driven by a meta-analysis of growth in the new economy, but one that is being achieved by old industrial economic interventions and policy rationales. These are being used to justify the redevelopment of former and residual industrial zones, with cities utilising the creative quarter/knowledge hub as a panacea to implement broader city expansion and regeneration plans.

Abstract:

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the rise of a Chinese fashion cluster in Lombardy. Design/methodology/approach Three approaches and descending levels of analysis are integrated: a quantitative analysis based on demographic data to highlight the evolution of the regional distribution of the Chinese community and Chinese entrepreneurship in Lombardy; a literature review to reconstruct the historical development of Chinatown in Milan; and few in-depth interviews and a survey to represent how the Chinese living in Chinatown perceive the changing role of the enclave. Findings The Chinese in Lombardy are rising as a regional ethnic fashion cluster. This cluster is rising out of three major drivers: ethnic social capital as a source of community-based entrepreneurship; the crisis of traditional industrial districts in the 1990s as a trigger opportunity; and the trans-regionalization of the fashion industry as a main driver of its current development. The rise of this cluster is bottom-up. Research limitations/implications The findings are based on a single case study. There are evidences showing that the Chinese are rising as regional and/or inter-regional clusters in other institutional settings. However, this study may benefit from comparisons with other institutional and national contexts. Practical implications Chinese entrepreneurship may foster regional growth as a complementary source of cultural variety, internationalization and multi-regional co-specialization. Social implications Entrepreneurship may foster social cohesion and collaboration. Originality/value This paper contributes to existing literature by proposing a would-be theory of the evolution of regional ethnic clusters.

Abstract:

This article explores how fashion is key to understanding the material legacies of urban development across East Asia, New York, and Los Angeles. Here, fashion is not just a material object, but a historical set of practices, relations, and migrant narratives. Fashion’s postcolonial legacies and diasporic connections have played a significant role in the development of industrial districts, special economic zones, and knowledge clusters across the Pacific. Likewise, fashion workers and designers continue to shape new urban geographies that stretch across and connect the US and Asia. Drawing upon ethnographic multi-sited fieldwork, and auto-ethnographic reflection, this article examines how the interplay between these industrial histories in garments, markets, labor and design, is shaped by both trans-Pacific and inter-Asian diasporic connections (across New York, LA, Seoul, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai): connections that are vital for understanding the urbanization of contemporary fashion economies across the US and Asia.

Abstract:

Future industrial development strategies, derived from current ideas, that is industrial development through a cluster approach. Cilegon city is a city with many petrochemical industries and other, it should be a potential that can give a positive impact for the welfare of Cilegon city community, the researchers want to design the cluster of the petrochemical derivative of IKM with supply chain system approach. The objective of the research is to design the development of a petrochemical derivative cluster of IKM in Cilegon, to determine the factors that influence the development of SMEs clusters, and to design improvement scenarios in the development of SMEs clusters with dynamic system simulations. Based on the results of SMEs cluster design, the stakeholders in the design are government, big companies, and business actors. Types of products to be produced are plastic packaging, plastic bottles, and plastic bags. The location of the right cluster of IKM development is located in Grogol sub-district. Raw materials used by petrochemical derivatives can be obtained from factories producing polyethylene in Grogol sub-district such as PT Lotte Chemical Titan. Factors that have the significant effect on SMEs cluster development are the factors of government support and local business power factor. The simulation result shows that the second alternative proposal is considered reliable enough to face the fluctuating market demand. From the simulation results obtained the average production of 228,513,6914 psc, the average production stock 821,742.4 and the average sales of 200,000 psc.

Abstract:

The aim of the article is to substantiate the typology of forms of spatial organization of the economy on the basis of a process approach and to clarify the features of their development in the context of Ukrainian realities and global trends in social development. There are four types of forms of spatial organization of the economy - based on the processes of business, innovation and foreign economic activity and agglomeration of production. Their subtypes are noted: by composition of branches (branch, interbranch, multidisciplinary), by character of connections (horizontal, vertical and mixed types), by organizational status (organizationally decorated and organizationally not decorated), by configuration (point, network, planar), by spatial distribution (local, regional, national, international). Forms of spatial organization of the economy of all types are considered, in particular on the basis of processes: business activity - enterprises, business incubators, corporations, financial-industrial groups, business networks, poles of competitiveness, regions with high competitive status; agglomerations of production - universal enterprises and plants, industrial areas, industrial districts, clusters, territorial production complexes, growth poles, development axes, economic areas; innovation activity - startups, innovative business incubators, concerns and parks, technopolises, innovation networks and clusters, smart cities, C-regions; foreign economic activity - joint ventures, transnational corporations, global networks, international clusters, world (global) cities, free (special) economic zones, globalized regions. Peculiarities of creation, functioning and development of forms of spatial organization of economy in the conditions of Ukraine are determined. It is noted that the proposed typology opens additional opportunities for clustering, innovation and transnationalization of the Ukrainian economy.
