摘要

发展性国家文献通常将注意力集中在民族国家行动者的角色上。然而，城市是越来越重要的创新和商业中心(经合组织，2006)。因此，随着国家政策工具逐渐受到国际公约的支配(Wade, 2003)，非国家层面的行为者能否影响行业发展?本文探讨了政策在加拿大阿尔伯塔省卡尔加里无线集群发展中的作用。论文表明，虽然艾伯塔省政府在早期阶段很重要，但它退出了，使集群在最近的危机中挣扎。提出了有利于市场和创新的政策建议，并与环境相关。

Alberta: Policy inaction, crises, unintended consequences and cluster success in the semi-periphery

The developmental state literature has typically focused attention on the role of nation-state actors. However, cities are increasingly important centres of innovation and commerce (OECD, 2006). Thus as national state policy instruments are progressively governed by international conventions (Wade, 2003), can non-national level actors influence industry development? This paper explores the role of policy in the development of Calgary's (Alberta, Canada) wireless cluster. The paper shows that while the Alberta Government was important in the early phase, it withdrew leaving the cluster struggling through recent crises. Policy suggestions that are pro-market and pro-innovation and relevant to the context are indicated.
