The secondary sector has had a key role in guiding the size and the speed of urban and infrastructural development of the Alpine region. In the post-Fordist period the importance of industry and its progressive role has significantly decreased. The different territories of the Alpine region have moved - wherever possible - their economy towards the intensive touristic exploitation of the mountain. Assuming that today the horizon of the economic reflection on the Alps can not entirely be occupied by tourism, this contribution intends to open a debate on the future of the secondary sector, with the hypothesis that it could be able to lead, with greater equilibrium and more environmental awareness than ever before, the socio-economic and socio-demographic development of Alpine territories

Keywords: Alps; industry; alpine city-territory
