Bridging the urban-rural digital divide
This paper explores and interrogates existing approaches to urban-rural digital divide reduction. The EU and its member states are applying fragmented and diverse digitalization of territories. Any systematic review of best practice and the juxtaposition of urban and rural areas is lacking. The authors present a taxonomy of key European rural digitalization approaches and determined EU country clusters according to the extent of their use, with a…

Strategic Group (Analysis)
“Strategic group” is a concept used in strategic management and strategic marketing that clusters together companies that pursue similar underlying strategies or have comparable business models. Companies are assigned to specific strategic groups through comparison along competitive dimensions such as pricing, product or service quality, firm size, and degree of vertical integration. More recently, attempts have been made to combine industrial or…
Marketing Mix
The term “marketing mix” was first used by Neil Borden to describe a list of important ingredients that constitute marketing programs. The marketing mix came to describe closely related decisions that managers make within the remit of marketing. Diversity of opinions has marked thinking about the marketing mix from the outset, and there is a lack of consensus about the components, usefulness, and applicability of the mix. Borden's own list is pro…
Database Marketing
“Database marketing” is a form of direct marketing whereby customer data are used to generate personalized interactions with customers. Database marketing is predicated on the use of technology to acquire, organize, systematize, and manage data for purposes of more effective management of knowledge held in corporate databases. Knowledge discovery and data augmentation tools are applied to extract and systematize complex and voluminous customer or…
Customer Compliance/Customer Control
“Customer compliance” refers to interactions between customers and providers with clear norms and processes of interaction being predefined by providers and enforced by them in an inflexible manner, in the process of doing so normalizing customer behavior. Compliance is a type of control over customers that does not rest on open, visible, and brute force but on more subtle efforts on the part of providers to channel customers' behaviors, especial…
Investigating difficulties and failure in early-stage rural cooperatives through a social capital lens
Rural cooperatives are assumed to contribute to economic development, regeneration, service delivery and local democracy. This paper examines the problems of setting up early-stage rural cooperatives, the difficulties experienced by them, and antecedents of their failure by complementing extant research with an empirical study of existing and recently failed early-stage Welsh cooperatives. Factors inhibiting early-stage rural cooperative growth a…
Conceptualizing Clusters as Dynamic and Path-Dependent Pools of Skills
Kasabov E. and Sundaram U. Conceptualizing clusters as dynamic and path-dependent pools of skills, Regional Studies. This paper conceptualizes clusters as pools of dynamic, path-dependent skills that sustain economic resilience, transformation and development. It draws on extensive archival, historical material and empirical findings from the city of Coventry, UK, to demonstrate the long-term nature and processes of skills accumulation, growth an…
An institutional account of governance structures in early modern business history
This paper is an account of the institutional mechanisms that have influenced business history in the early to late Middle Ages in the city of Coventry. The paper discusses socio-cultural, political, religious, and historical influences on the city's major trades during the era and incorporates analysis of governance structures in the form of Coventry's famous guilds which were instrumental in shaping the trajectory of one of England's foremost c…
The Compliance Business and Its Customers
The internet has changed the way consumers interact with companies. Businesses must maintain good levels of customer service in a digital world where old strategies may no longer suffice. This book ex
How Did it All Come About?
Regulated and sheltered environments found across sectors in developed economies have traditionally protected incumbents,1 including those long-established and entrenched competitors which have been described as ‘national champions’. However, regulatory protection discouraged innovation, and was marked by output, price, entry and other controls aimed at restricting destructive competition. Recent deregulation, globalisation, trade liberalisation …
A Stakeholder Approach to Branding Clusters
Kasabov E. and Sundaram U. A stakeholder approach to branding clusters: pointers to a research agenda, Regional Studies. This paper addresses gaps in the research of clusters and place brands by proposing the analysis of clusters as place brands and arguing for the adoption of stakeholder management approaches for such a purpose. Analysis should also recognize the role of diverse stakeholders with potentially incompatible interests in cluster bra…
Towards a Theory of Peripheral, Early-stage Clusters
Kasabov E. Towards a theory of peripheral, early-stage clusters, Regional Studies. This paper attempts to contribute to a theory of clusters in the biotechnology sector with special reference to those operating at the periphery and away from major and established centres. It identifies causes of delayed and stunted development such as inadequate institutional support, a lack of networking, diverging perceptions, and cognitive disagreement among m…
