Обоснование применения системно-агломерационного подхода к исследованию индустриальных кластеров
The actual tendency of competition between territories stimulated clasterization in high
added value industries, including production sector. However cluster influence on region is still
not clear. Some reasons for present circumstances could be found in the system of theoretical
and methodological contradictions of modern cluster theory. Within the present investigation,
basing on author’s model, we conducted cluster theory structuration and described six actual
approaches to industrial clustering. Comparative analysis of the approaches mentioned showed
that each of them tends to describe a particular aspect of cluster instead of drawing up a balance
sheet. On this basis, we suggested a new logically correct approach, which is founded on
system and agglomeration concepts combination. Further, the approach mentioned will form
theoretical and methodological basis for cluster investigation.
