Description
Although economists have long recognised industrial districts as one of the key features of an economy, only recently has attention focused on the region as an effective means of generating accurate insights into the larger picture of economic performance. Using a copious range of research material examining several British regions, Industrial Clusters and Regional Business Networks in England, 1750-1970 poses a series of fundamental questions about the nature of industrial clusters and networks. Particular attention is paid to identifying the basic characteristics of a network, outlining how they evolved in key industrial clusters, and assessing their impact on industrial performance, both regionally and nationally. The durability of such networks is another key thread that runs through the essays, prompting comparison with industrial clusters in Britain and abroad. These issues also stimulate discussion on disciplines of business, economic and social history.
