Fran�ois Perroux.
Fran�ois Perroux (December 19, 1903 in Saint-Romain-en-Gal � June 2, 1987 in
Stains) was a French economist. He was named Professor at the Coll�ge de France,
after having taught at the University of Lyon (1928 � 1937) and the University of
Paris (1935 � 1955). He founded the Institut de Sciences Economiques Appliqu�es in
1944. He was an outspoken supporter of corporatism.

He was terribly critical of the leading financial and economic policies toward the
Third World during the half-century of his career. He said that they took
insufficient account of the originality, culture, and concrete situations of the
countries concerned, and were too quantitative, too Western in concept, and too
centered on the interests of the rich industrialised countries. He counselled the
peoples of the Third World to build upon their cultures, their social
organisations, and their resources, so as to better the internal coherence of their
economies and reduce the effects of domination by the exterior.[1]

In the field of Regional Economics, one of his main contribution's was the concept
of poles de croissance or 'growth poles'. It implied that Government policies aimed
at the regeneration of a specific local region were critically dependent upon the
Input-Output linkages associated with the industry. A 'pole de croissance' is an
industry, or group of related industries, that have growth rates above the national
average and the capacity to generate growth through the impact of strong input-
output linkages.
