| Title: |
Territorial Innovation Models: a Critical Survey, |
| Description: |
This critical review of territorial innovation models (industrial districts, milieux innovateurs, new industrial spaces, local production systems, etc) is organized in two stages. 1.The main features of each model and their view of innovation are compared.2. Their theoretical building blocks are reconstructed and evaluated for conceptual clarity and analytical coherence. Despite some semantic unity among concepts used (economies of agglomeration, endogenous development, systems of innovation, evolution and learning, network organization and governance), the models (TIMs) show conceptual ambiguity.mainly a consequence of the way territorial innovation is theorized,(in terms of technologically driven innovation and a business culture instrumental to the capitalist market logic).This ideological priority pushes the "conceptual flexibility' of TIMs across the border of coherent theory building. |
