Abstract

Long-wave theories generally neglegt service activities and service innovations. Nevertheless Schumpeter's analyses provide us with very suggestive concepts. It provides in particular a large and open definition of innovation. Moreover it enables us to ask following questions : What is the place of service activities and of their innovations in the long-waves ? May we interpret de-industrialization tendancies of developed economies as a process of destruction of old industrial structures and of their replacement by new service firms, respective to the schumpeterian mechanism of creative destruction ? Is the schumpeterian entrepreneurial function involved in service activities and isn't the entrepreneurial function of industrial firms itself partly shared with some special service activities namely consultancy activities ?
