Recenzii

’Everything you ever wanted to know about networks (but were afraid to ask)!’ In an increasingly multiplex global environment, well-developed local networks make a significant contribution to improvements in firms’ international competitiveness. McNaughton and Green have assembled an excellent collection that reflects the state of the art in the area. Essential and insightful reading for anyone interested local clusters and global networks.’ Jim Bell, Professor of International Business Entrepreneurship, University of Ulster, Magee CollegeÂ
