Small- Scale Enterprises in Developing and Transitional Economies.

This book considers the role played by Small-Scale Enterprises (SSEs) in the development strategies of developing and transitional economies in a changing global context. Analysis is based on research undertaken in Africa, Asia, South America and Eastern and Southern Europe, and is centred around four key issues: the efficiency of SEEs, their relation to market competition, the development of clusters and technological upgrading.
