本文以河南省虞城县南庄村钢卷尺产业集群为例,基于企业问卷调查数据,运用社会网络分析法,通过对比企业在初创阶段的衍生网络与现阶段的情感网络、咨询网络和合作网络,探讨了欠发达农区传统制造业集群中网络的形成和演化过程。研究发现相对于偏重技术联系的发达地区高技术集群来说,欠发达农区传统制造业集群网络的形成和演化更具有内生性和自组织规律。在集群成长和网络演进的过程中,集群网络中的核心关系受农村社区聚落环境的影响,并随农区企业规模、地位和能力的改变而演变。依此集群网络的形成和演化经历4个阶段,即家族或泛家族网络阶段、内部分工生产网络阶段、本地创新网络阶段和全球供应链网络阶段,各类型网络在集群发展的不同阶段起着不同的作用。
This paper uses the social network analysis (SNA) to examine the evolution of networks in traditional manufacturing clusters of undeveloped rural areas, based on the case of steel measuring tape cluster in Nanzhuang village, Yucheng county, Henan province. By contrasting the network structure and characteristics of the spin-off networks in initial stage with that of the emotion networks, advice networks and cooperation networks in present stage in the cluster, it finds the particularities of evolution of networks in traditional manufacturing clusters of undeveloped rural areas, such as the auto-organizational principle of this kind of clusters. In the process of this evolution, the changing of the size, status, capabilities of the enterprises or the community environmental changes may alter the core relations in cluster network. The evolution of networks in traditional manufacturing clusters of undeveloped rural areas can be divided into four stages, that is, the familyextensive family networks, the division-production networks, the local innovation networks and the global supply networks. The different types play different roles in different stages of cluster development. Meanwhile, the intrinsic capabilities and the extrinsic contracts of enterprises also match the network stages respectively.
