Furniture Industry Cluster Driving Force Of The Theoretical And Empirical Study

This article mainly for the furniture industry cluster study, how the mechanism driving the formation of power from the industry and regional level in the development economics and regional economics theoretical analysis angle, Witnessed the relationship between the corresponding measurable and furniture industry cluster and regional cluster; it were separately analyzed from an external and internal and different periods on empirical analysis angle.Part I:The theory of industrial clustering of the existing theory to be sorted out, divided into endogenous, integrated, exogenous types. The driving forces of industrial cluster were analysed in depth from internal and external sources, It were affirmed that Internal driving force of furniture industry gathered from the "demand-cost" of the contact effect, and the "need-market" effect.which maily based on "external economy" and the "scale effect". External power came from the government, regional furniture cluster traffic level, industrial facilities and other variables of the interaction, thereby establishing empirical analysis from the basic variables.Partâ…¡:From the two levels of industry and regional industry, the status of their concentration levels were respectively measured from the scale of production, employment size, firm size.Three-dimensional scale of furniture industry appears low level in the 1988-2001 Period. three-dimensional size of the furniture industry increase rapidly both the absolute and relative size and growth rates in 2002-2008, at the same time the status of industrial agglomeration grows quickly.The change of Region furniture industry cluster and regional disparities emerge periodic phenomenon. Interregional imbalances do not gather prominent in the 1988-2002, furniture industry within the six regions on the mean deviation also showed little fluctuation phenomena. From the scale of production, employment size, firm size, clustering coefficient and the location quotient calculations both show that the export-oriented clear regions:South-middle, North-east, North-hua, export-oriented weak area are in the north-west of furniture industry. South-west region is the highest growth rate of export-oriented. In 2009, the scale of the south-west regional furniture appears tremendous changes in the scale of furniture to 35.71%, it jumped from fifth to first in the region. It proved that the new gathering point of the furniture has been seen.Part III:the empirical of furniture equilibrium has a good analysis, which is based on closely related sub-industry, wood furniture, plastic furniture, metal furniture, bamboo furniture, other furniture industry, it proved that the impact of economies of scale of furniture weights greater than other variables in the long rum. From short-term industry growth, capital requirements, etc. factors have shown a certain influence in industrial cluster. Evidence shows that nearly balanced furniture industry cluster is coming now.Part IV:The relationship were studied between the level of cluster furniture and driving powers, which is based on internal and external drivers and different periods angle. Fixed investment, furniture export, furniture, furniture, domestic consumption are the reasons for industrial clustering. Investment and furniture industry is two-way causality between agglomeration, furniture, furniture exports are one-way causality.It shows that the original drivers of coefficient are more significant on regional furniture industry which based on production-scale. In the internal analysis of the largest variable is the wage level, and the larger the external variables factor are the traffic level and the market effect, it were very good evidences.External drivers take less and less function on the traditional cluster of the regional furniture industry which based on employment size and firm scale. But, firm-scale and comparative labor productivity still have some comparative advantage. Traffic levels driving force of furniture even more significant in Emerging area, South-west regional furniture is more reflected in the government's support and guidance of industrial policies particularly.It emerged "the development of convergence" and "development divergence" Phenomenons on regional furniture industry cluster. in 1988-1998 the whole difference between the Provinces of the furniture is greater than the impact of interregional contribution, in the period 1999-2008 the contribution rate of between interregional greater than the provincial contribution.Part V:Conclusions and recommendations. Analysis of the current furniture industry cluster and regional industrial clustering problems and risks, presented furniture industry cluster of the enterprises should strengthen their ability of identify transactions and enhance the region's technology incubator and innovation to combine to good interaction mechanism in furniture cluster area.
