El primer artículo (Becattini, 1979) conceptualiza el distrito industrial como una «unidad de investigación», mientras que el segundo (Becattini, 1989) conceptualiza el distrito industrial como un «modelo de producción». Entre los dos artículos hay una dependencia mutua. El distrito industrial como «modelo de producción» privado del distrito industrial como «unidad de investigación» pierde su originalidad como una forma de interpretar el cambio económico y se convierte simplemente en «un tipo de clúster». Este artículo trata la relación entre el distrito y el clúster, y a continuación entre el distrito industrial como un constructo teórico único y los muchos distritos industriales como resultados de investigaciones empíricas, y concluye con algunas observaciones sobre la actualidad del distrito industrial.20152015-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501NAhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_be7fb7dd8ff6fe43info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10017/26625reponame:e_Buah Biblioteca Digital Universidad de Alcaláinstname:Universidad de Alcalá (UAH)Inglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ebuah.uah.es:10017/266252026-06-18T11:13:07Z |

The year 2014 marked a double anniversary: the 35th and 25th anniversaries of the publication of two seminal papers of Giacomo Becattini on the industrial district. The first paper (Becattini, 1979) conceptualizes the industrial district as a «unit of investigation», while the second (Becattini, 1989) conceptualizes the industrial district as a «model of production». Between the two papers there is a mutual dependence. The industrial district as a «model of production» deprived of the industrial district as a «unit of investigation» loses its originality as a way of interpreting economic change and becomes merely «one type of a cluster». This paper deals with the relationship between district and cluster, then also between the industrial district as a singular theoretical construct and the many industrial districts described by empirical investigations, and concludes with some remarks on the topicality of the industrial district. |
