  • Marie-Claude BELIS-BERGOUIGNAN

Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to highlight how evolutionary theory can provide an adequate framework for sectoral studies. It sets out the broad outlines of such an approach focusing on key concepts, while suggesting lines of interpretation of industrial dynamics. The concrete illustrations provided are seeking to show that these concepts are not ready-made tools within an applied industrial economy approach.
