The aim of this paper is to investigate the economic specialization of the Italian local labor systems (sets of contiguous municipalitieswith a high degree of selfcontainment of daily commuter travel) by using the Symbolic Data approach, on the basis of data derived from the Census of Industrial and Service Activities. Specifically, the economic structure of a local labor system (LLS) is described by an interval-type variable, a special symbolic data type that allows for the fact that all municipalities within the same LLS do not have the same economic structure.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to investigate the economic specialization of the Italian local labor systems (sets of contiguous municipalitieswith a high degree of selfcontainment of daily commuter travel) by using the Symbolic Data approach, on the basis of data derived from the Census of Industrial and Service Activities. Specifically, the economic structure of a local labor system (LLS) is described by an interval-type variable, a special symbolic data type that allows for the fact that all municipalities within the same LLS do not have the same economic structure.
