Research On Development Policy Based On Local Industry Clusters

Clusters have been interpreted as self-reinforcing networks of not just firms, but arange of other organizations-including research institutes, universities, financialbodies and public sector agencies- all of which are characterized by high levelsof both competition and collaboration. Today, interest in the "cluster" concept has increased dramatically among economic development policy-makers. However, the research on cluster is a new field either in china or outside, how to develop the regional economy by means of cluster in china strategy is also a new subject, the role of policy in cluster development has not been clearly defined in cluster theory. Even someone argue that "cluster policy" does not exist, at least not as a really identifiable policy area. The author has given us a frame of cluster policy theory, applied to how to make the right one.The theoretical and case study of this thesis revealed that regional development policy should endeavor to cultivate industrial milieu. This idea sheds a new light on making regional development policy when many local governments pay attention to attract investment only by preferential conditions, while ignore cultivating industrial milieu and local network.
