A PERSPECTIVA INSTITUCIONAL E A GEOGRAFIA ECONÔMICA /// \\\ THE INSTITUTIONAL PERSPECTIVE IN ECONOMIC GEOGRAPHY
Abstract
Este artigo apresenta um estudo preliminar da abordagem
institucionalista sob um olhar da geografia econômica. No arcabouço
teórico, destaca o pensamento de Veblen (1965) e Douglass North (1993)
sobre a economia institucionalista, resgatando conceitos como:
instituições, organizações, e especificamente, na nova geografia
econômica, estão ideias de Martin (1996, 2000), no que tange aos
conceitos de ambiente e arranjo institucional. Pauta-se no
reconhecimento de que a perspectiva teórica adotada abre uma
possibilidade de análise e de compreensão da dinâmica de longo prazo,
das contradições e dos ajustes necessários a toda mudança de caráter
estrutural. Conclui que é pertinente considerar a inclusão da abordagem
institucionalista nos estudos geográficos como alternativa para o
entendimento do território.
Palavras-chave: Abordagem institucionalista; Geografia econômica; Análise regional; ordenamento do território.
ABSTRACT
This
article presents a preliminary study of the institutional approach
through the lens of economic geography. In the theoretical framework,
the line of thought of Veblen (1965) and Douglass North (1993) on
institutional economics is highlighted, recovering concepts such as
institutions and organizations. The ideas which are specifically
highlighted are Martin’s (1996, 2000), being new economic geography,
using the concepts of environment and institutional arrangement. These
ideas are based on the recognition that the theoretical perspective
which is adopted opens a possibility of analysis and understanding of
long-term dynamics, contradictions and all necessary adjustments to
structural change. Finally, it is deemed pertinent to consider the
inclusion of the institutional approach in geographical studies as an
alternative for understanding territory.
Key words: Institutional approach; Economic geography; Regional analysis; Spatial territory.
