Abstract(s)
The technological development along with the fall of most political barriers has made the
world a smaller place. Firms, even those that focus their operations in the domestic market,
face an increasing competition. These phenomena have introduced an important shift in the
way the competitiveness issue must be regarded. In fact, in a growing number of cases it is a
matter of being competitive in webs of relationships where the particular position assumed by
one firm is likely to affect not only its own performance but also the evolution of other
players. The objective of this paper is to shed a new light on competitiveness supported by
collaborative arrangements. The authors develop a model of inter-organizational cooperation
based on four attributes: interests, resources, activities and trust.
