Hewings, Geoffrey J.D. Silva, Carlos Eduardo Lobo E. 2015-09-25T18:22:55Z 2015-09-25T18:22:55Z 10000-01-01 2007 2007 Finally, the third paper studies the investment in human capital in the development of clusters. The model aims to capture the tension between regional competition and scale economies presented in a region where many firms produce the same (or related) good(s). Opportunistic behavior can lead clustering firms to suboptimal investment in human capital and scale economies eventually (partially) neutralize those harmful effects of competition by attracting a third party that centralizes the bulk of investment.
