Industrial agglomeration and new technologies : a global perspective / Masatsugu Tsuji, Emanuele Giovannetti and Mitsuhiro Kagami - Cheltenham : Edward Elgar, 2007 - x, 383p, 23cm. - New horizons in regional science .

The studies presented in this book illustrate real examples of industrial clusters, adding anecdotal evidence to the emerging theory of economic geography by exemplifying the centripetal and centrifugal forces that regulate the clustering process. The authors examine clusters in a diverse set of countries including China, Italy, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, the USA and Vietnam. Significantly, the book provides an interesting split between studies of IT and software-related industries, and more traditional sectors, such as steel and vehicle manufacturing
