This book analyses how SME clusters emerge in a developing economy. Using India as a case study, it addresses one central question: If growth has largely failed to be inclusive so far, and if employing work force in increasing returns activities through a different trajectory of industrialization largely dependent upon industrial clusters of SMEs is believed to be true, then what are the structural infirmities and asymmetries that need to be taken into account in the context of framing policies related to industrial clusters? The book identifies the structural infirmities in industrial clusters in India, which could be typical to any of the developing countries and sharply in contrast to European success stories. Blending theory and empirical material, it provides a middle ground between the two extremes of a uniform policy assuming 'one size fits all' and a specific policy based on individual cases. The book redraws the broad contours where space and production processes mutually constitute each other in a typical way giving rise to outcomes something generic to underdevelopment. It is of interest to academics working in the fields of economics, business administration/management and development economics. 410 0$aRoutledge Studies in the Growth Economies of Asia 606 $aSmall business$zIndia 606 $aIndustrial clusters$zIndia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSmall business 615 0$aIndustrial clusters 676 $a338.6/420954 700 $aRoy$b Satyaki.$0966847 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462993903321 996 $aSmall and medium scale enterprises in India$92194384 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05322nam 22006614a 450 001 9910145591803321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-281-32019-6 010 $a9786611320195 010 $a0-470-98868-1 010 $a0-470-99417-7 035 $a(CKB)1000000000407090 035 $a(EBL)351049 035 $a(OCoLC)437214046 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000134328 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11157545 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000134328 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10055476 035 $a(PQKB)10894348 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC351049 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL351049 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10236672 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL132019 035 $a(PPN)242595642 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000407090 100 $a20050307d2005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCyclic separating reactors$b[electronic resource] /$fTakashi Aida, Peter L.

The adequacy of present models is considered by comparison of simulation and experimental studies, and gaps in understanding or experimental verification of model predictions are identified.

Bollier and Helfrich offer a vision of a future beyond the dead-end binary of capitalism versus socialism. The authors cover the internal dynamics of commoning, how the commoning worldview opens up new possibilities for change, the role of language in reorienting our perceptions and political strategies, and seeing the potential for commoning everywhere. They provide a non-academic synthesis of contemporary commons and present a narrative: that we can be free and creative people, govern ourselves through fair and accountable institutions, and experience the aliveness of authentic human presence. --Adapted from publisher description. 606 $aCommons 615 0$aCommons. 676 $a333.2 686 $acci1icc$2lacc 700 $aBollier$b David$01493092 702 $aHelfrich$b Silke 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793775103321 996 $aFree, fair, and alive$93715940 997 $aUNINA
