Chutando a escada macroeconômicapolítica industrial, taxa de câmbio e outras contribuições ao novo desenvolvimentismo

Resumo

Through a structural approach, this work aims to analyze to what degree changes in the State economic model adopted by Brazil resulted in the discontinuation of its productive catching up, making its technological leapfrogging impossible. From the 1980s onward, a developmentalist biased model was progressively substituted by a predominantly neoliberal model. We start from two premises: firstly, that in the period in question Brazil has presented a cyclical and chronical trend of overvaluation in its real long-term exchange rate, which has been caused mainly by an uncontrolled Dutch disease and by the adoption of erratic economic policies. Secondly, that due to its poorly implemented macroeconomic policies, the conduction of a sectorized industrial policy has lost its efficacy over time. Having this as a background, the rise of neoliberalism and the neoclassical theory as the economic mainstream is presented. After that, the history of the developmentalist ideas is revisited. Then, we highlight some aspects of the development process of Great Britain, the United States, Japan, and South Korea. Finally, we delve into the Brazilian case.
