| Research Abstract |
I examined a logic that stimulates knowledge creation, collective learning and innovation in industrial districts. This can be considered as a major source of competitiveness for regional economy. Based on the hypothesis of economics of conventions, we can consider that such advantages could be constituted of conventions and norms that provide the competence of action and the basis of collective learning for local actors. In this study, I tried to theoretically integrate economics of conventions and theory of industrial agglomeration, and then to apply our methodological framework to empirical studies.
