Abstract

Kelton C. M. L., Pasquale M. K. and Rebelein R. P. Using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) to identify national industry cluster templates for applied regional analysis, Regional Studies . Whereas Feser and Bergman developed the concept of national-level cluster templates and introduced a systematic methodology to identify such clusters, their technique and results were based on the now-outdated Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system for categorizing industries. The paper updates their results using the 1997 Benchmark Input-Output Accounts for the USA, which are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Since the treatment of services is much more comprehensive under NAICS, the paper expands on the Feser and Bergman manufacturing templates to identify more comprehensive mixed-sector templates. The cluster templates determined can provide a foundation for regional economic development strategies. Kelton C. M. L., Pasquale M. K. et Rebelein R. P. L'emploi des NAICS afin d'identifier des mod�les de grappes nationales industrielles pour l'analyse r�gionale appliqu�e, Regional Studies . Alors que Feser et Bergman ont d�velopp� la notion de mod�les de grappes sur le plan national et ont avanc� une m�thodologie syst�matique afin d'identifier de telles grappes, leur technique et leurs r�sultats ont �t� fond�s sur le classement industriel SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) qui est aujourd'hui d�pass�. A partir des Benchmark Input-Output Accounts (tableau rep�re des �changes inter-industriels) pour les E-U et fond�s sur la NAICS (North American Industry Classification System), on remet � jour leurs r�sultats. Vu que le traitement des services est beaucoup plus d�taill� selon le classement NAICS, on peut d�velopper les mod�les industriels de Feser et Bergman afin d'identifier des mod�les sectoriels mixtes plus d�taill�s. Les mod�les de grappes ainsi d�termin�s pourraient fournir un point de d�part pour les strat�gies d'am�nagement du territoire. Grappes et liens industriels Am�nagement du territoire Kelton C. M. L., Pasquale M. K. und Rebelein R. P. Identifizierung nationaler Branchencluster-Vorlagen zur angewandten Regionalanalyse mit Hilfe des NAICS, Regional Studies . Feser und Bergman entwickelten das Konzept von Clustervorlagen auf nationaler Ebene und f�hrten zur Identifizierung dieser Cluster eine systematische Methodologie ein. Allerdings st�tzten sich ihre Technik und Ergebnisse auf das inzwischen veraltete Branchenkategorisierungsschema der Standard Industrial Classification (SIC). Wir aktualisieren ihre Ergebnisse mit Hilfe der Benchmark-Input-Output-Konten f�r die USA, die auf dem Klassifikationsschema North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) beruhen. Im NAICS werden Dienstleistungen in weitaus st�rkerem Maße ber�cksichtigt, weshalb wir die Produktionsvorlagen von Feser und Bergman weiterentwickeln k�nnen, um umfassendere Vorlagen mit gemischten Sektoren zu identifizieren. Die von uns entwickelten Clustervorlagen k�nnen als Grundlage f�r Strategien zur regionalen Wirtschaftsentwicklung dienen. Branchencluster und Verkn�pfungen Regionalentwicklungspolitik Kelton C. M. L., Pasquale M. K. y Rebelein R. P. Identificaci�n de las plantillas de aglomeraci�n de la industrial nacional para el an�lisis regional aplicado mediante SCIAN, Regional Studies . Feser y Bergman desarrollaron el concepto de plantillas de aglomeraci�n a nivel nacional e introdujeron una metodolog�a sistem�tica para identificar estas aglomeraciones. Sin embargo, su t�cnica y resultados para clasificar las industrias estaban basados en el ahora ya desfasado sistema de Clasificaci�n Est�ndar Industrial (c�digo de SIC). Nosotros hemos actualizado sus resultados con ayuda del modelo de an�lisis comparativo de entrada-salida de 1997 para los Estados Unidos, basado en el sistema de clasificaci�n industrial de Am�rica del Norte (SCIAN). Dado que el tratamiento de los servicios es mucho m�s completo en el SCIAN, podemos ampliar las plantillas de fabricaci�n de Feser y Bergman para identificar plantillas del sector mixto m�s exhaustivas. Las plantillas de aglomeraci�n que hemos determinado pueden cimentar las bases para las estrategias de desarrollo en la econom�a regional.
