Then, combining the cases it discusses how the different embeddedness acts on the cluster. At last it canvass the policy about how to build all kinds of embeddedness. There are eight parts in this thesis in all.The preface puts forward the relation of embeddedness and cluster, explains the practical value and research methods.The second part reviews and evaluates the concept of the cluster , embeddedness and lifecycle of the cluster. Using the theory of Tichy G for reference ,This thesis will divide the lifecycle of cluster into the formative phase, the growth phase, the maturity phase and the petrify phase.Combining the theory of social economics, the third part analysises the advantage of embededness and opens the "black box" of embeddness.Ground on each phrase of the lifecycle, next three parts explain the action between the different embeddedness and cluser.The seventh part gives out the policy suggestion about how to build the embeddedness.The eighth part is the conclusion of the thesis .It also touches upon the future research aspects.
