This paper aims to reexamine the logic of the industrial cluster, which are expressed by five Japanese economist (Ishikura et al, 2003). Their considerations are based on Porter (1990: 1998). The present author regards the so-called diamond model as an important framework for analyzing the competitiveness of a region as well as those economists. But this model was originally proposed for the discussion on the competitiveness of a national economy. In order to apply this model to a region as a smaller spatial unit than a national territory, it is necessary to reconsider what is a region. The five economists stress only the spatial scale which makes the face-to-face contact possible, and do not reconsider what is a region. The present author thinks that a region is a place with which the people identify themselves and within which the people can have more chances to communicate directly with each other. The people mean entrepreneurs, managers and employees who live there, as well as the other inhabitants. The boundary of a region is certainly vague. We may define a boundary of a region not as a line, but as a zone. The people in the transitional zone may feel vague identity with the neighboring regions. But most people in a region identify more or less with their own region. This viewpoint should be included into the consideration of an industrial cluster, if one adopts this concept to enforce a policy for the promotion of regional industries.
