| Description |
Botswana's small and large towns offer good examples of incipient industrialization and enterprise clustering in a developing economy. Using data from Lobatse, a small industrial centre in Botswana, this brief paper shows that clustering in developing countries does not necessarily induce high inter-firm relationships as is the case in industrialized countries. Relations are limited among firms within clusters African Journal of Social Work Vol.17(1) 2002: 19-38 |
