          Abstract

          ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to analyze the catching-up processes of South Korea and post-1978 reforms China, based on a new-developmentalist approach that considers four fundamental factors: 1) a complementarity relationship between the state and the market as a dynamic process that changes over time; 2) necessary complementarity between macroeconomic policy and industrial policy; 3) the key role of public and development banks in attacking the problem of “development financing”; and a particular focus on 4) the centrality of exchange rate and balance of payments administration for the development process in these countries. The paper’s fundamental question is to what extent the catching-up process in these countries can be understood as the application of a new-developmentalist strategy, taking each country’s particular historical traits into account.

          RESUMO O objetivo deste artigo é analisar o processo de catching-up da Coreia do Sul e da China pós-reformas de 1978 a partir de uma abordagem novo-desenvolvimentista que considere quatro fatores fundamentais: 1) uma relação de complementaridade entre Estado e mercado como um processo dinâmico que se altera ao longo do tempo; 2) necessária complementaridade entre política macroeconômica e política industrial; 3) papel fundamental do Estado dos bancos de desenvolvimento no enfrentamento do problema do “financiamento do desenvolvimento”; e destaque à 4) centralidade da taxa de câmbio e do manejo na administração do balanço e pagamentos no processo de desenvolvimentos desses países. A questão fundamental do artigo é em que medida o processo de catching-up nesses países pode ser entendido como uma aplicação de uma estratégia novo-desenvolvimentista, levando em conta as devidas mediações históricas de cada país.

            The Dutch disease and its neutralization: a Ricardian approach

            The Dutch disease is a major market failure originated in the existence of cheap and abundant natural or human resources that keep overvalued the currency of a country for an undetermined period of time, thus turning non profitable the production of tradable goods using technology in the state-of-the-art. It is an obstacle to growth on the demand side, because it limits investment opportunities. The severity of the Dutch disease varies according to the extent of the Ricardian rents involved, i.e., according to the difference between two exchange rate equilibriums: the ‘current’ or market rate and the ‘industrial’ rate - the one that make viable efficient tradable industries. Its main symptoms, besides overvalued currency, are low rates of growth of the manufacturing industry, artificially high real wages, and unemployment. Its neutralization requires managing the exchange rate. The principal instrument for that is a sales or export tax on the commodities that give origin to the Dutch disease. In order to neutralize it policymakers face major political obstacles since it involves taxing exports and reducing wages. Finally, this papers argues that there is an extended concept of Dutch disease: besides having its origin in natural resources, it may arise from cheap labor provided that the ‘wage spread’ in the developing country is considerably larger than in the developed one - a condition that is usually present.
