They tend to import policies from these ‘success models’ showing minimal regard to their context and institutional capabilities; therefore, more often than not, such policies show little effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003eThis research on cluster policies in Albania confirms this. It suggests that in Albania there is a need to revise the way of thinking about clusters, considering them first and foremost as relational networks, instead of physically bound industrial districts.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n                \u003cp\u003eWhile there is questioning of top-down policies and the national innovation systems prerogative, the suggested model by this research, in line with some of the most recent policy frameworks, advocates the need for flexibility, bottom-up initiatives and place-based approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                \u003cp\u003eBy means of conclusion, the book comes up with an alternative model of territorial policies for cluster development, shifting from ‘static’ towards ‘dynamic’ planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783030698416\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Case of Albania\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783030698416","offer_id":39605874622557,"sku":"9783030698416","price":53.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/ed93b789-c25a-4a61-96f5-542a7eb6ff37.jpg?v=1775190382","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/cluster-dynamics-in-transition-economies-von-elona-karafili","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
