Abstract
This chapter enhances the previous discussion to point out some of the most important arguments to understand Southern Europe’s challenging reality better. Thus in this context, we proceed by presenting a sequence of analytical methods and tools that have been used to detect some of the significant features able to readdress pushing and pulling forces, those that could be considered the most efficient for change in a dynamic process of the region. This chapter launches the framework for dynamic analyses by proposing a conceptual context to describe and compare industrial models and production systems across southern European regions, thereby emphasizing the need to use analytical methodologies before building strategic decisions for future developments.
