Chapter 4 in SME Cluster Development, 2007, pp 57-81 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter constitutes the connection between the first part of this work and the second. It links the first part on SMEs to the second part on SME clusters and SME cluster development. In doing so, in this chapter we analyse the concept of ‘cluster’ and describe its main features, making reference to the main theoretical approaches to cluster development.
