Born to innovate, not to produce
This paper examines the role of innovation in Marshallian Industrial Districts (MIDs) in Spain and Italy over three decades. Challenging traditional views that focus on production as the primary driver of success, the paper argues that MIDs function as ‘living innovation machines’, where continuous technological advancement ensures long-term competitiveness. Using a comparative causal framework and a dataset covering 1991–2018, the study assesses…
Living innovation machines
This paper investigates the innovative intensity (iMID effect) in the local production systems (LPSs) using dynamic territorial units that modifies their geographical boundaries and specialization over time. The paper is based on the idea that the local communities are the real unit of generation of innovation and that they are constantly changing, behaving like a ‘living innovation machine’. To explore this dynamic relationship, the paper applie…
Italy, the fair land there where the Sì doth sound
This article provides empirical evidence on the determinants of the vote in favour of reducing the number of the Members of Parliament, the issue covered by Italy’s referendum held on 20–21 September 2020. Consistent with the literature on the geography of discontent, the social factors – age, education and income – play a significant role. Among the determinants, however, the political factor stands out, namely the vote for the Five Star Movemen…
The Italian Urban System
Introduction - cities as nodes of urban networks, Guiseppe Dematteis economic change, Fabio Sforzi the demographic transition, Cesare Emanuel the international functions, Piero Bonavero the local milieu, Cesare Emanuel and Francesca Governa regional cohesion and global networks, Guiseppe Dematteis towards European integration, Carlo Salone
Territorial servitization in Marshallian industrial districts
This paper is the first general study of territorial servitization in Marshallian industrial districts (MIDs). It introduces the novel idea of place-based servitization as a form of territorial servitization, which is then used conceptually to reframe the traditional perspective on MIDs, manufacturing places par excellence. Drawing on comparable quantitative data from Italy and Spain for 1991, 2001 and 2011, the paper then provides generalizable …
The industrial district and the “new” Italian economic geography
From Industrial Districts to Local Development
From Industrial Districts to Local Development introduces a set of papers representing the main contribution of the ‘Florence school’ to the recent literature on industrial districts. The authors illustrate that the revitalisation of the concept of industrial districts, returning to Alfred Marshall’s nineteenth-century writings, is rooted in an unconventional interpretation of the economic development of Tuscany after the Second World War.
