Abstract (Translated): 
The general objective of the study is to quantify the economic potential of 98 municipalities in the province of Seville in 2007 and 2012 from empirical research based on the application of the Rasch model. This will allow us to design a generic analytical framework or frame of reference for the planning and execution of territorial development policies. We can see which municipalities have experienced an improvement in their Economic Potential in this 2007-2012 stage of shocking economic recession as well as the municipalities that have shown a decline in this potential. In addition, the impact of each of the economic development potential factors in this Measure of Economic Potential will be delimited, determining how in both years there is a concurrence in the items of high relevance (budgetary income per inhabitant and the net work-earned income per working-age population) and in those which are least relevant to increase their capacity to grow and develop since their achievement is easy to achieve (productive diversification and the number of declarations per working-age population). All this will allow for more efficient planning of economic policy measures aimed at promoting and fostering the economic development of the municipalities considered.
