Fred...

Thanks!  I suspect that you really mean that clusters or structure won’t mechanically produce prosperity without the necessary-but-hard-to-quantify social capital needed to create the right environment.  If so, I agree completely.  You would probably enjoy the work on regional stewardship done by Doug Henton and colleagues at Collaborative Economics in Palo Alto.  They were the staff behind the creation of Joint Venture.  They have also been instrumental in the creation of the Alliance for Regional Stewardship, on the web at http://www.regionalstewardship.org.
