GRACIA HERNANDEZ, Maximiliano. Industrial theory: a link with the cluster of footwear. Tla-melaua [online]. 2017, vol.11, n.42, pp.116-135. ISSN 2594-0716.

This research paper aims to analyze the forces of attraction that led the Mexican region of Leon, Guanajuato, to become an example of regional development, based on the footwear industry. The methodology starts from the analysis of the industrial theory, particularly the localization, the agglomeration and the industrial assemblage. It is a research of contrast; it contrasts a theoretical phenomenon with an empirical research. It determines the empirical causes by which the localization and industrial agglomeration was generated and what were the conditions. Interviews were made to the footwear entrepreneurs in order to gather the required information.

Keywords : Location; industrial agglomeration; footwear industry; León; Guanajuato.
