The dichotomy of market and embedded social ties as a factor in the foundation and development of cluster-network organizations
Abstract
The article considers an identification of specifics of the impact of the market (free) and embedded social ties on the foundation and development of explicit and implicit cluster-network organizations in the regional economy. In order to justify the hypotheses put forward in an article a detailed analysis of Russian and foreign research literature is made. The regularities of growth effects of integration in the region’s economy, associated with dominance of market and embedded social ties are revealed. The article sets the degree of influence of the social embeddedness of relations between firms located in one region on their economic growth. The new form of organization named as “cluster-network organization” is proposed. The author formulates an approach to the identification of cluster-network organizations, including the sociological, cultural and historical research methods and educes the degree of influence of the embedded and market social ties on the formation of cluster-network organizations.
