Abstract

Since the 1980s, industrial cluster as a new regional development model has gained increasing attentions from academic researchers and public policy-makers worldwide. In recent years, the investigation on the dynamics, the evolutionary path of industrial clusters from the evolutionary economic geography perspective has become one of the hot study issues. This paper describes the traditional explanations of industry cluster formation and the theoretical and methodological drawbacks, then reviews the research process of the formation of industrial clusters from the perspective of evolutionary economic geography, and finally points out some worth noting issues when the approach of evolutionary economic geography is applied to China's industrial clusters.
