A Comparative Study of Emerging Forms of Interorganization Relationships Among Japan, China, USA, and Europe

在过去的几年里，对小世界和小世界现象的研究已经重振了对社交网络和网络理论的研究。根据Watts的说法，小世界是一个大型的、连接的、稀疏的、分散的网络，它具有低的特征路径长度和高度的聚类。在考虑从高度聚集的网络到小世界的潜在路径时，Watts指出，添加一小部分捷径可以在不显著减少网络聚集的情况下缩短路径长度。在此过程中，他展示了局部结构的适度变化如何导致全球结构的重大变化，并为结构研究注入了谨慎的注意。我们的研究旨在探讨企业或地区的繁荣与其网络结构之间的相关性，借鉴小世界网络的观点。作为真实的世界 关于我们 本文以小世界网络为案例，分析了跨国网络与中国温州的转型。温州曾经是中国最贫穷的地区之一。然而，温州人现在却享有巨大的繁荣。这似乎是因为他们既利用了紧密联系的常规联系（亲属关系和基于省份的联系），也利用了少量的远程路径。他们为了生活得更好而搬出贫困的家乡，特别是在20世纪80年代和90年代。由此，温州人建立了以亲情和友谊为基础的跨国网络。有趣的是，他们仍然在继续重新连接以寻找新的机会。温州企业家有一个快速行动者的优势，通过快速，无冗余的信息传输通过小世界网络。它们对不断变化的环境表现出非凡的适应力。我们得出的结论是，为了繁荣，必须在本地和远程联系之间取得平衡。一个网络拓扑很可能会对参与者的表现产生很大的影响，毕竟，网络拓扑应该很重要。少

Over the past several years, investigations into small worlds and the small world phenomenon have reinvigorated the study of social networks and network theory more generally. As per Watts, who introduced the so-called "small-world network model", a small world is a large, connected, sparse, decentralized network which has both a low characteristic path length and a high degree of clustering. In considering potential paths from highly clustered networks to small worlds, Watts notes that the addition of a tiny fraction of shortcuts can collapse path length without significantly reducing a network's clustering. In so doing, he demonstrates how significant changes in global structure can result from modest changes in local structure, and injects a note of caution into studies of structure.Our research has aimed to inquire into the correlation between the prosperity of an enterprise or a region and the structure of its networks, drawing on a small world network perspective. As a real world … More case of small world networks, we have analyzed transnational networks and the transformation of Wenzhou, China. Wenzhou used to be one of the poorest regions in China. Wenzhou people, however, enjoy immense prosperity at present. This appears to be because they have made use of both tightly knit regular ties (kinship & province-based ties) and a small number of long-range paths. They moved out of their impoverished hometown on purpose to be better off, especially in the 1980s and the 1990s. As a result, Wenzhou people have established transnational networks based on kinship and friendship. Interestingly, they still continue to be rewired in search of new opportunities. Wenzhou entrepreneurs have a quick movers' advantage by rapid, non-redundant information transmission through small world networks. They exhibit remarkable resilience to ever changing environments. We have come to the conclusion that it must be important to strike a balance between local and long-range connections for prosperity. A network topology is likely to have a great impact on performance of actors who are within it. After all, a network topology should matter. Less
