Structural asymmetries and the health crisis: The imperative of a transformative recovery for the advancement of sustainable development in Latin America and the Caribbean
This article underscores the pressing need to transition to a new development model in Latin America and the Caribbean as the region strives to cope with the current health emergency. Statistics show that the Latin American and Caribbean region has been hit harder by the pandemic than any other and that it has also sustained the most damage in economic and social terms. This is attributable to long-standing structural factors that set the stage f…
Industrial Policies, Patterns of Learning, and Development: An Evolutionary Perspective
This work discusses the role of industrial policies within an evolutionary view of innovation and learning as drivers of economic development. Building on the notions of technological paradigms and trajectories, it links the processes of catching up with the dynamics of capability accumulation within and across firms. Technological paradigms provide a structure to the knowledge embodied in individual and, even more importantly, in organizational …
Productivity, social expenditure and income distribution in Latin America
This paper discusses the role of institutions and structural change in shaping income inequality. It is argued that while social expenditure and direct redistribution are crucial for improving income distribution, sustainable equality requires structural change. The relative importance of these variables in different countries is analyzed and a typology suggested. It is argued that the most equal countries in the world combine strong institutions…
National System of Innovation: A Note on Technological Asymmetries and Catching‐up Perspectives
What distinguishes the National Innovation System (NIS) across different countries? Could the NIS be considered a useful analytical framework to explain growth performances? Which kind of representation can supersede the "push policy view" of NIS approach? These questions are worthy of particular attention for the understanding of potential empirical and analytical achievements of this approach. This paper discusses the main approaches that expla…
Reciprocidade implícita e crescimento na economia internacional: Uma perspectiva estruturalista
Implicit reciprocity and growth in the international economy: a structuralist perspective. This paper discusses some of the structuralist ideas about international coordination and growth in an international system formed by countries whose productive structures and technological capabilities are strongly asymmetric. These ideas are formalized taking as a point of departure the Keynesian Balance-of-Payments constrained growth model with two count…
Learning, Technological Capabilities, and Structural Dynamics
This chapter discusses why this has occurred and compares the Latin American experience with that of other more successful catching up economies. Both economic history and economic theory generally acknowledge a deep relationship between technical change and economic development. The opening of the technological black box by the Schumpeterian literature produced new insights on how learning and technological capabilities co-evolve and why the tec…
Industrial Policy and Development: The Political Economy of Capabilities Accumulation
In the 1990s, development policy advocated by international financial institutions was influenced by the so-called Washington Consensus thinking. This strategy, based largely on liberalization, privatization, and price-flexibility, downplayed, if not disregarded, the role of government in steering the processes of technological learning and economic growth. With the exception of the Far East, many developing countries adopted the view that indust…

A low-growth model: Informality as a structural constraint
After years of reforms and unending debate, the question remains unanswered: why is Latin America not growing more? The present article approaches the subject from an unconventional perspective, presenting the persistence of informality as a structural barrier to growth. As an analytical frame of reference, it introduces a 2 x 2 model of growth in which the economy comprises just two sectors, the formal and the informal. The model presents the li…
