  • Domestic and International Challenges for the Textile Industry in Shaoxing (Zhejiang)
    Special feature China perspectives Domestic and International Challenges for the Textile Industry in Shaoxing (Zhejiang) SHI LU ABSTRACT: This article recounts the transformations that have taken place in the textile industry in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, over the course of the past 30 years. It reveals the importance of the local setup and the links that have built up between companies, mar - kets, and the state and its departments. It also exposes the difficulties experienced by companies as they try to adapt to their changing environment, whether in terms of opportunities offered by the domestic or international markets, or new regulations.

  • The Geography and History of Industrial Clusters in Zhejiang Province, China
    The Geography and History of Industrial Clusters in Zhejiang Province, China November 2006 Tomoo Marukawa Institute of Social Science University of Tokyo [email protected] Introduction Zhejiang Province, China, is known as a home of many industrial clusters. Academic interests on Zhejiang’s industrial clusters have been attracted for the most part to the peculiar development experiences of Wenzhou, which is characterized by the proliferation of small family firms and their interaction with the market (Yuan 1987, Nolan and Dong 1990, Zhang and Li 1990, Shi et als 2002, Sonobe, Hu and Otsuka 2004). But recent researches have discovered similar industrial developments in many other parts of Zhejiang Province (Wang et. als. 2001, Zhu 2003, Shi et. als. 2003, Sheng and Zheng 2004). Most of the literature on Zhejiang’s industrial clusters, however, are case studies of some large clusters. There exist many smaller clusters in the province, but information on such clusters, such as the amount and size of them, is seriously lacking. In the case of Japan, the Small and Medium Enterprise Agency conducts a survey on industrial districts every year since 1963 (The Small and Medium Enterprise Agency 1981), which lists as many as five hundred districts and tracks their performance. In Zhejiang, the Provincial government conducted a survey on industrial clusters recently (Project Unit 2003, 2006), but the definition of clusters in the survey was vague. Through many field works in Zhejiang, I realized that many industrial districts exist without being documented by any means. The purpose of this research is to discover the hitherto undocumented clusters in Zhejiang.
