Abstract: This dissertation aims to contribute to the study of competitiveness both at the
theoretical and at the empirical level, with a specific focus on urban competitiveness. It
is structured in three first chapters, each of which elaborates a self-contained research,
and a last fourth one that highlights the argumentative thread followed by the previous
chapters, compiles the main findings of the previous investigations and constructs some
final thoughts on the research as a whole. Thus, this thesis can be read either as one full
research or as three separate investigations.
The first chapter of this document centers its attention on the definition of the term
competitiveness at the territorial level. This is motivated by the lack of agreement
regarding the definition or even the appropriateness of the use of concept. Through a
thorough revision of the academic literature regarding the matter and the analysis of the
different theoretical frameworks, on the first chapter of this thesis, different elements and
dimensions of the competitiveness concept are identified and studied, and a specific
definition of territorial competitiveness is proposed: “process through which from
resources and capacities that provide competitive advantages, a territory can achieve
previously established wellbeing objectives”.
Given the findings of the first investigation (first chapter), and the proposed
definition of territorial competitiveness, the wellbeing concept acquires special relevance.
In this sense, and introducing a special focus on cities, the second chapter is concerned
with the study of wellbeing creation at the urban level.
The third chapter of this thesis is concerned with the measurement of the
“competitiveness potential” that is created by “resources and capacities that provide
competitive advantages”, as stated by the competitiveness definition previously proposed.
Thus, through the construction of a composite indicator, the competitiveness potential of
twenty-nine cities is calculated, and different conclusions are drawn from the results
comparison.
Finally, in the fourth chapter, each of the self-contained investigations of the
previous chapters are revisited, highlighting their main findings, the reasoning thread and
the final reflections on the matter of competitiveness that could be drawn from this
dissertation. |
