Tato kniha se zabývá otázkou, zda koncept flexibilních sítí specializace a inovace může podpořit rozvoj malých a středních podniků v rozvojových zemích. Dochází k závěru, že tu přece jen existuje potenciál pro rozvoj malých a středních podniků, přes obrovské překážky, které doposud rozvoji bránily. Mnoho podniků se zdá být uvězněno v začarovaném kruhu stagnace. Studie, které tato kniha obsahuje, pomohou podnikatelům, politikům, inovátorům a živnostníkům i ženám najít způsob, jak se vymanit z této situace. Autory studií jsou specialisté z různých oborů se zkušenostmi z Afriky, Asie i Latinské Ameriky.

The book discusses how the concept of flexible specialization and innovation networks could facilitate the development of small and medium enterprises in developing countries. The book concludes that the potential for development through small and intermediate enterprises exists in many cases, despite severe obstacles which have so far prevented development for taking place. Many groups of enterprises seems to be caught in a vicious circle of stagnation. The studies in this volume will assist enterpreneurs, policymakers, innovators and small businessmen and women to find the means to escape from this situation. The essays are written by contributors from a variety of academic disciplines and draw on actual experience from africa, asia and Latin America.
