title = "Network analysis of creative clusters in Shanghai",
abstract = "The previous chapter analyzed the clustering dynamics of creative industries in Shanghai within the framework of two branches of location theories: new classical economic geography as well as culture- and knowledge-based approaches. The dynamics analysis demonstrates a variety of relations between creative clusters and socioeconomic factors. This chapter follows the network analysis by similarly distinguishing economic and social approaches. The network approach is expected to provide insight into the embeddedness of Shanghai{\textquoteright}s creative industries at different geographical scales in terms of local-regional-international networks. Furthermore, this chapter also presents a case of design cluster that is deeply rooted in university-based social networks in Chinese contexts, namely, Guanxi networks. Network approaches from both economics and sociology are expected to provide new explanations to the complex relationships between urban space and the creative economy on the one hand and to exhibit the special structure and nature of creative clusters in Shanghai on the other.",
