Abstract
This study examines the experience of industrial localization in Arica, Chile, during the period 1953-1980. It analyzes the impact of industrial promotion policies and the development pole strategy on the economic and demographic growth of the city. Using historical data and qualitative analysis, the effectiveness and limitations of these policies are evaluated. The results indicate that while these strategies achieved rapid initial growth, they did not generate long-term sustainable regional development due to reliance on special incentives, lack of regional integration, and vulnerability to changes in national economic policies. This case provides fundamental lessons to orient the design of policies that promote a more balanced regional industrial development.
