Entrepreneurial Networks in Local Industrial
Development. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2009, Pages: 172
Since the early 1970s, the nature of production has
changed quite fundamentally which caused new
organizational forms and complex spatial behaviors.
Networking that has emerged as a new perspective on
the organization of production help greatly to
understand the success of businesses, thus the
resurgence of regional economies. This book presents
the importance of networks in the context of local
industrial development and displays a developing
country experience. In this context, two localities
from Turkey; Denizli and Gaziantep that have
achieved a breakthrough in local industrial
development is analyzed comparatively on network
basis. Throughout the study, the entrepreneurs are
considered as the vital actors of networks, and the
economic and social embeddedness of their network
relations are analyzed by emphasizing the spatial
dimensions. A new set of empirical evidence on
entrepreneurial networks in local industrial
development should be especially useful to
researchers in local/regional development, socio-
economic and spatial fields or anyone else who may
be interested on networks.
