Abstract:

In the mountainous areas of Europe, local development can be explained by the existence of comparative advantages with regard to the more heavily populated areas. When applied to the Catalan Pyrenees, the revision of the theory of comparative advantage within the framework of the centre-periphery model and the use of the territorial embeddedness theory of economic activities enables us to demonstrate that in the future, short term analysis will have to be replaced by long term analysis that also considers environmental, social and cultural externalities.
