CLUSTERS IN THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF LOCAL AND REGIONAL POLICY
Maria BUCKA
Abstrakt
The notion of clusters, as a tool of the local and regional development policy in Poland is a completely new one in our economic reality: it is only recently that it has raised considerable interest on the part of both economic theory and practice. In order that clusters could provide an effective tool of policy that serves the purpose of development and increase the level of competitiveness of the economy, it is indispensable to provide a precise definition of the term. However, defining it is far from an easy task, yet indispensable as regards cognitive procedures exerting a strong influence on the ąuality of scientific knowledge created by researchers of a given phenomenon. Moreover, defining is particularly important if its goal is description or analysis of a given phenomenon since precision in doing so facilitates establishing a proper scope of research and helps exclude from it immaterial features or elements.
