The openness/growth nexus is an issue that has intrigued many scholarsfrom different disciplines, like international economics, economic geography, regionaleconomics, international business, for a very long time. While the theoretical implicationsare quite clear, the empirical evidence is mixed and scarce, especially at sub-nationallevel. Indeed, openness is not observable at regional level; therefore, it is difficult toidentify a comprehensive and reliable set of quantitative variables measuring the differentdimensions of the phenomenon. Despite this objective difficulty, much has been done,and today we have a more comprehensive view of the nature of the phenomenon, as wellas its trends and territorial impacts. This paper summarizes the theoretical milestones,i.e. the principles universally accepted by the literature, and the most recent empiricaltrends at territorial level, with especial emphasis on the contribution of Italian RegionalScientists.
