Resumen
CASTIBLANCO MORENO, Suelen Emilia. Ciudad región global: una revisión conceptual. suma neg. [online]. 2013, vol.4, n.1, pp.33-40. Epub 01-Mar-2021. ISSN 2215-910X.
The global city-region focus responds to a global context in which territories become active subjects of global networks through which political, economic, social, and cultural information travels. This production system is based on the flexibility of production processes, the formation of networks based on human talent and innovation, the importance of small and medium enterprises and the mobility of capital based on the “neutralization” of the distances (Pineda, 2001).
In this approach, “the association or business cooperation is a crucial feature, innovation is a cumulative process that involves learning by doing, using and interacting, and often produces increasing returns” (Meyer-Stamer & Harmes-Liedtke, 2005). Thus, groups of companies interacting in a territory, learning, and working together and with other local actors create local production systems that become key to successful integration into international markets structured in networks. Objective: To identify the main theoretical elements associated with the study of cities global regions. Methodology: A literature review about the global cityregion category. Findings: Global City-regions respond to dynamics of contemporary globalization process becoming active agents of local development dynamics.
