Abstract
In our approach the innovative behavior of firms provides the basic characterization to understand the diversity of firms in terms of performances and conduct: the static limits of the Structuralist approach can thus be overcome. At the same time it is also clear that firms innovate because of the incentives provided by the present diversity of firms building on the present techniques each firm commands. Hence, technological change has not the deterministic character which affects some evolutionary analysis.
