The process of national industrial regeneration and competitiveness
回顾了管理研究、经济学、经济史和政治学中关于产业再生与竞争力的两派文献,指出它们过去相互独立,但通过借鉴新兴制度学派的见解,可以解释国家间竞争力差异并为企业管理层提供实用思路。
The paper reviews two streams of work on the issue of industrial regeneration and competitiveness–that from within the management research field, and that from economists, economic historians, and political scientists. It is argued that these streams have in the past been independent but there is much to be gained by sharing insights from each and applying them to the process within firms of generating competitiveness for that firm. By using insights from the newly emerging institutionalist school it is possible both to explain national differences in competitiveness and generate useful ideas for the managers of individual firms. The paper ends by setting out a research agenda, applying the insights from institutional analysis, for furthering our understanding of the strategic processes available to managers for regenerating and enhancing the competitiveness of the individual firm.
