Literature on local economic development in English:
- Focus on the dynamics of large urban agglomerations and successful or aspiring global city-regions (Silicon Valley model)
(Krugman 1990, Saxenian 1996, Porter 1998, Sassen 2001, Scott & Storper 2007, Storper 2013, Piscione 2013)
Literature on Latin American local economic development in small and medium-sized cities in Spanish:
- Extremely optimistic: quality of life, networks of proximity, etc.(Méndez et al. 2006, Michelini & Davies 2009, Vázquez Barquero
2010)
- Extremely pessimistic: corruption, “recentralization,” etc.(Jordan & Simioni 1998, Machado 2000, Bolay & Rabinovich 2004)
Why this book? Why fragile governance?

Habitat III – Local Economic Development issue paper
“It is estimated that 600 cities will generate nearly 65% of world economic growth by 2025. For example, 1.9% of the population of China lives in Shanghai and the city produces 13% of GDP…
given the productivity of cities, rapid urbanization presents a unique opportunity to lift hundreds of millions out of poverty”

Dependency Theory vs. Modernization Theory
![Page 22: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Periphery as a dynamic category of analysis
”peripheries are spaces never quite done, always being altered, expanded, and elaborated on. Seen as processes of becoming, then, peripheries may be everywhere, not necessarily on the fringes of a city or metropolitan region.” (Caldeira 2015)
![Page 23: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

“Mecanismos Público-Privados para la Promoción del Desarrollo Económico Local y Regional: Una Guía para la Práctica”
![Page 25: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Preferred to hierrachies but:
- Not always horizontal: there are power dynamics(some nodes are more important than others)
- Networks and governance can fail (e.g. Multipleactors with high rotation, dificulty to reachagreements, etc.)
In peripheral regions with fragmented networks: payattention to emerging informal processes of associationrather than trying to formalize or create cooperatives
1. Associations and networks
![Page 26: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
2. Learning Processes
EXPLICIT KNOWLEDGE
• know-what: knowledge about facts
• know-why: knowledge about cause and scientific principles
TACIT KNOWLEDGE
• know-how: knowledge about processes
• know-who: density of social networks
![Page 27: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
In peripheral regions: recognize different kinds of knowledge and learning processes
EXPLICIT KNOWLEDGE
• Technical knowledge (engineers, NGOs, government officials, etc.)
TACIT KNOWLEDGE
• Experiential knowledge (study tour, peer 2 peer, internships, etc.)
• Storytelling (peasants, artisans, etc.)

3. Leadership and Conflict Management
![Page 29: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
In peripheral regions: importance of having not only shared but also inclusive leadership (particularly women and young people)
![Page 30: Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development · Ananya Roy (2011) “new geographies ... • 2011 Teodoro becomes president of the Mancomunidad de Lurín 2 large projects for](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8573833129df5d2a1361a2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Not only theories about cities of the global South remain underdeveloped, also theorizing on smaller cities, both in the North and South. This includesunderstanding how local economic development work in these places.
• We not only need ‘new geographies of theory’ but also “new geographiesof translation.” The South does produce theory but in a different language. Importance of having research teams who speak multiple languages.
Fragile governance as emergent –and often informal- governanceprocesses that can promote LED but can also easily fail. An alternativeto move beyond extremely optimistic and pessimistic narratives of local institutions and development in Latin American smaller cities
Peripheral regions as an alternative to small and medium-sized cities –the theoretical tradition of this term is deeply rooted in Latin American intellectual and policy history. It emphasizes dynamic and relational processes of connection and disconnection with core areas as opposed to location or size
Some conclusions
