The specificity of the manufacturing industry was a relevant issue for economic thought, which could not be reduced to technical aspects or even remain within the limits of mercantile relations. This paper aims to analyze how this specificity was conceptualized based on a set of concatenated problems: first, the nature and implications of the increasing returns of the industry at the system level. Second, the distributive conflict and the process of social differentiation that nests therein and that goes beyond the limits of mercantile relations. Third, the role of the territorially delimited community as a mechanism for conceptualizing the unity and containment of industrial systems. Finally, an alternative line of research inspired by the work of Max Weber is recovered, which response to the questions analyzed by conceptualizing industrial systems through the forms of authority that are put into play there.
