The paper examines the role that cluster-specific horizontal relationships play in firm resilience following a negative shock. We use the Emilia earthquake that hit part of Emilia-Romagna (Italy) in May 2012 to provide evidence of the negative effect of horizontal clustering on firm performance after a natural disaster. Moreover, empirical analyses show that firms within industrial districts are able to recover as soon as firms not belonging to industrial districts. The results are established controlling for a wide array of confounding factors, including local supply chain and infrastructure disruptions and alternative location-specific factors.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Regional Science (JRS) publishes original analytical research at the intersection of economics and quantitative geography. Since 1958, the JRS has published leading contributions to urban and regional thought including rigorous methodological contributions and seminal theoretical pieces. The JRS is one of the most highly cited journals in urban and regional research, planning, geography, and the environment. The JRS publishes work that advances our understanding of the geographic dimensions of urban and regional economies, human settlements, and policies related to cities and regions.
