Abstract

Questo lavoro si prefigge di fornire un?analisi quantitativa sui fattori che stimolano l?export delle province italiane. Tra questi, particolare enfasi viene posta sulla classe creativa locale, cos? come concepita da Richard Florida. Utilizzando diverse fonti di dati, le stime mostrano che la classe creativa non esercita un impatto diretto sull?intensit? delle esportazioni di una provincia. Tale effetto, invece, si materializza quando la dotazione di lavoratori creativi ? interagita con la capacit? innovativa della provincia e, ancor pi?, con il relativo grado di specializzazione manifatturiera. Occupazione creativa e industriale, dunque, risultano essere input complementari nell?equazione di export.
