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.
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.

Models of industrial organisation and empirical investigation of industrial tendencies are featured, and Alfred Marshall''s concepts of the advantages of the geographical agglomeration of specialised small firms in industrial districts are reintroduced. The authors extend the analysis of purely economic effects of agglomeration, including social, cultural and institutional foundations of local development, and current case studies are presented.

This book will appeal to scholars, lecturers and researchers focusing on industrial economics, development economics and economic geography. Its references to Italian political experiences will also be of interest to policymakers in both developed and developing countries.
