Since 1990s, as inter-firm networks and industrial cluster shave developed rapidly in the world, more and more research pays attention to the related topics, which make cluster theory, strategic theory and social network theory intercrossing and integrating in this field. From the inter-firm network perspective, the study analyzes the relations among Network structure, dynamic capabilities and clusters' competitive Advantage. In response to these research problems, based on the reality of competition among clusters, this study put forward industrial clusters' competitive advantage and re-examine the logic of it.In empirical analysis, using statistic yearbooks .And the research gained data from 2002 to 2005 in sixteen towns from firecracker clusters in Liuyang city Hunan province. In the cluster level, the study analyses the statistical data, aggregated from 666 firms by using SPSS 10.0, which tests the theoretical model.Through theoretical and empirical analysis, four main conclusions are found in the study: The development of clusters' competitive advantage is a process based on the Accumulation of inter-firm networks' dynamic capabilities. And the results show that Resource Acquisition Capabilities and Resource Configuration Capabilities of inter-firm network enhance the efficiency and the effectiveness of clusters, and Resource Integration Capabilities is in favor of clusters to improve effectiveness, which in a combination of industrial clusters competitive advantage.
