Abstract

[fre] Le concept de proximité a fait une entrée remarquable dans l'analyse économique au cours de la période récente. Il constituerait le concept intégrateur d'un nouveau champ de recherches au carrefour de l'économie spatiale et de l'économie industrielle. Son intérêt semble ainsi indéniable, mais on ne peut pour autant qu'être saisi(e) d'embarras face à la polysémie du terme dans la littérature. Aussi, face à l'intérêt indéniable qu'il suscite et aux difficultés analytiques qu'il pose, il importerait de préciser les fondements et la pertinence du concept de proximité. C'est dans cette perspective que notre contribution s'inscrit, en se focalisant sur un domaine du champ d'intersection entre économie industrielle et économie spatiale plus restreint : celui des interactions technologiques et territoriales. C'est en effet dans l'analyse des interactions entre technologie et territoire que l'on trouve le cadre d'émergence du concept de proximité. Nous verrons en particulier que les déclinaisons de la proximité et la pertinence de ce concept sont relatives au type d'approche des interactions technologiques et territoriales que l'on privilégie. [eng] Within a few years, the concept of proximity has emerged and has been given a central, linking role in a new range of contributions led at the frontier between industrial economics and spatial economics. The interest raised by the concept may however be overcome by its polysemous aspect. It would thus be necessary to clarify the contents as well as the relevance of the concept of proximity. In order to attempt and tackle those questions, the paper focuses on one framework at the frontier between industrial economics and spatial economics -the analysis of technological and territorial interactions- within which the concept of proximity has emerged. In this perspective, we suggest that the dimensions of proximity stressed as well as the relevance of the concept are relative to the kind of approach employed for the analysis of technological and territorial interactions.
