This article aims to explore how and to what extent economics of the firm may take advantage through a transdisciplinary and bi-directional collaboration with both economic history and economic-regional sciences, and the related research methodologies. First, we investigate the pre-industrial putting-out-based historical roots of the present network forms of organizations. Second, we uncover an original framework of their evolution in economic thought. Third, we juxtapose and integrate the approaches to reticular systems worked out, respectively, by the economics of the firm (for firms and districts) and regional sciences (for urban and regional fabric). Fourth and eventually, as concerns the study of the network and territorial systems of firms and of cities, we advance a first sketch of the original double network connection between networks of firms and networks of cities, and highlight how - between economic disciplines related to the study of a local geographic territory - they are unfolding new and fertile possibilities for multidisciplinary collaborations and cross-fertilizations.
