Dual clusters in dual economies: understanding innovation in clusters of developing countries
研究了发展中国家集群中企业绩效差异的双重结构，以及这种结构如何受双重经济框架影响，限制了网络促进本地企业创新的能力。基于18个拉丁美洲集群的实证分析，对理解欠发达国家创新过程有参考价值。
Abstract In developing countries, clusters not only have a dual configuration with pronounced differences in company performance but are also embedded within the framework of dual economies. This restricts the capacity of networks to facilitate the innovation processes of local firms. We provide empirical evidence that supports this hypothesis by analyzing local and multinational firms in 18 Latin American clusters. Our findings can improve the understanding of innovation processes in underdeveloped countries, suggesting that dualism should be considered as a determining factor.
