The Organization of Regional Clusters
构建了一个区域集群内企业间治理模型,分析交易特征与集群宏观文化如何共同影响治理设计,并探讨路径依赖对后续治理选择的影响。适合研究产业集群、交易成本和企业间关系的学者参考。
We introduce a model of interorganizational governance within regional clusters. Drawing on the “new institutional economics” literature, we show how firms' governance designs are shaped by the relationship between transaction-level characteristics and the cluster macroculture. We then consider how subsequent transaction-level governance designs are affected by path dependencies from past governance choices. Finally, we suggest that intertransactional path dependencies exhibit directional asymmetries, and we draw implications for the literature on clusters, on transaction costs, and on interorganizational relationships.
