A chapter in Big Strategies for Small Business, 2009, pp 19-57 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Bregenzerwald craftspeople are known for the high formal quality of their work. This is the result of a conscious and organized effort to explore traditional artisan knowledge vs. contemporary design, cooperation vs. competition - knowing what one wants as a prerequisite for being able to integrate outside influences in a harmonious way.
