Literature Analysis of Governance in Local Productive Arrangements: a Systematic Review

The study analyzes the quantity of scientific publications related to governance in Local Productive Arrangements (LPAs). A systematic literature review covering the last 20 years was conducted. The survey was conducted on the portal of journals of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), the Scientific Periodicals Electronic Library (SPELL), and the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), with 34 articles being cataloged, in Portuguese and English, using the keywords: « Local Productive Arrangements and Governance ». It was found that the research addressed governance in LPAs from the following aspects: command, power and hierarchy relationships; representativeness; cooperation; coordination; participation in decision-making processes; dimensions and component factors of governance; environmental issues; territory; and factors that limit governance in LPAs.
