碩士 / 國立臺北大學 / 都市計劃研究所 / 104 / This research focuses on the development of Taiwan’s yacht industrial cluster. It aims to use this case to discuss what an industrial cluster may face- the growth and decline and to strengthen the existing discussion orientation of industrial cluster area. Backtracking development of Taiwan's yacht industry, it was not a smooth process, but it went through a series ups and downs reaching its peak in the 1980s and suffering in economic recession on 1990s. However, in the transformation and innovation efforts, this industry overcame difficulties and broke "sunset industry" impression. From this view the developing process of Taiwan’s yacht industry, it reflects the complete face of an industrial cluster which may encounter the growth and decline. Thus we think it is a suitable subject to conduct the research on the analysis
of industrial cluster and regional economic resilience.
In terms of research methods, we offered a framework to analyze resilience of Taiwan’s yacht industrial cluster. And through the extensive secondary data collection, the in-depth interviews with key interviewees, case observation and analysis to sort out the context of the development of Taiwan's yacht industrial cluster and find out the factors which make this industry resilient and its dynamic construction process.
In the research result, firstly we find that the evolution of Taiwan's yacht industrial cluster completely gone through four stages of development. And Entrepreneurs led a cluster space transfer from north to south part of Taiwan- Kaohsiung. Secondly, regarding of the application regional economic resilience in Taiwan’s study field, we firstly analyzed the external and internal impact, and then using two-level observation framework to find the resilience components in
Taiwanese yacht industry. We found that the resilience construction factors came from the support from an extremely flexible labor and production network and a tightening social network which made yacht manufacturing firms overcame every industry impacts. Besides, the guidance and assistance from the government, and entrepreneurs with entrepreneurship are the crucial factors to enhance the resilience of this industry. Finally, in the evolution of regional economic resilience and industrial cluster theory, we think that regional economic resilience concept offers a different interpretation and
understanding way to study industrial clusters, also offers another way to rethink our industrial policies. Especially in recent years, with various economic impacts happened in the global environment frequently, which highlight the importance and necessity to discuss the concept of resilience.
