A Network Capacity Perspective of Transmission and Diffusion of Cluster Risk Based on Focal Enterprises

Article Preview

Abstract:

Cluster risk prevention is a critical issue in sustainable development of regional economy. Considering the complexity of cluster network structure, more need to be studied to clarify the internal logic relationship between cluster risk transmission and its diffusion.On the premise of categorizing dimensions of focal enterprises' network capacity and structural attributes, two findings are concluded: (a) there is a significantly positive relationship between focal enterprise's network capacity and structure (i.e. network centrality and Relationship adaptability); (b) Instead of simply positive or negative correlation, there is a dialectical relationship between network structure and cluster risk robustness in some cases.
