Summary: | The reduction or omission of the analysis of local cultural identity in the framework of the municipal strategic diagnosis limits the identification, integration and mobilization of this cultural resource, leads to the underutilization of its endogenous capacities and its integral contribution to the management of local development. The study started from a previous theoretical foundation with the objective of revealing local cultural identity indicators that, from the descriptive logic of the municipal development strategy, contributes to strengthen the diagnosis of this intangible resource of development. The techniques of document analysis and surveys were used to recognize and contrast the problems of the study and the scientific methods of analysis-synthesis and induction-deduction. The research established the relations and characteristics of components of relative independence with a cognitive, practical, psychosocial and patrimonial cultural repertoire and with endogenous potentialities for development, which play a referential role of local cultural identity. It was determined in conclusions that the set of cultural identity referents, contained in the Knowledge of Local Productive Systems, Local Productive Culture, Local Collective Action and Local Cultural Heritage, provide a wide source of local cultural identity indicators that will contribute to strengthen the strategic diagnosis of this cultural resource for the management of local development.
