Small firms’ Dynamism & The Organizational Forms: Nature of ‘Young-Kaldor Industrialization’

Industrial clusters and districts have been recognized as key drivers of advanced growth. The existing literature perhaps focuses more on Marshallian industrial organization in which how small firms define the dynamic organization form is important. The present paper argues that a Keynesian growth perspective should dominate in which new investments and growth manifested in narrow specializations promote the dynamism of small firms that underpins large-small firm nexus. The policy focus is on enriching the manufacturing as an engine of growth. Growth promotes the dynamism of small-large firm nexus which in turn reinforces growth. The focus is on the proper industrialization that advances the endogenous evolution of the dynamism of small firm that sustains learning by doing to innovate.
