This paper is based on complex system theory applied to social science with theobjective of contributing to a larger understanding of economic development. Itstresses the relevance given to absorption and connectivity capacities and to thecomplex system properties of self-organization and adaptation in order to shedlight on systems in different levels of aggregation. The present work establishesthe relationship between capacities and properties and in turn with the way theyinteract with the creative destruction processes, knowledge appropriation andstructural change. Finally, the paper discusses some policy-related issues derivedfrom the complex system analytical approach.
