Q

CRITIQUES OF DEPENDENCY THEORY

A

The basis of dependency in underdeveloped nations is derived from industrial technological
production, rather than from financial ties to monopolies from the core nations (Theotinio Dos
Santos).

Does not provide exhaustive empirical evidence to support its conclusions.

The theoretical position uses highly abstract levels of analysis.

Dependency movements consider ties with transnational corporation as being only detrimental to
countries, when actually these links can be used as means of transference of technology.

Base the assumptions and results on the nation-state.

Q

Theory which explains East Asian INDUSTRIALIZATION
(Woo-Cummings, 1999: 1).

Seamless web of political, bureaucratic and moneyed influences that structures economic life in capitalist North Asia (Johnson, 1982 as cited by Bolesta, 2007: 105).

It is often conceptually positioned between a free market capitalist economic system and centrally planned economic system, and called a PLAN-RATIONAL CAPITALIST SYSTEM, ‘conjoining PRIVATE OWNERSHIP with STATE GUIDANCE’ (Woo-Cumings 1999: 2).

A

DEVELOPMENTAL STATE THEORY

75
Q

is an embodiment of a normative or moral ambition to use the interventionist power of the state to guide investment in a way that promotes a certain solidaristic vision of national economy’ (Lariaux in Woo-Cumings 1999: 24).

A

DEVELOPMENTAL STATE THEORY

76
Q

Ha-Joon Chang underlines that ‘economic development requires a state which can create and regulate the ECONOMIC and POLITICAL relationships that can SUPPORT SUSTAINED INDUSTRIALIZATION ’(Chang 1999: 183).

A

DEVELOPMENTAL STATE THEORY

77
Q

Positioning the theory of developmental state
between a liberal open economy model and a
centrally planned model suggests its being neither
_____ nor _____ in texture.

A

capitalist ; socialist

78
Q

CAN A DEVELOPMENTAL STATE BE CREATED
IN AN ECONOMY OF A NEO-LIBIRAL NATURE?

A

‘Politicizing certain “economic” decisions may not only be inevitable, but also desirable, because the
world is full of assets with limited mobility and owners who are naturally determined to prevent
changes that threaten their current positions’ (Chang 1999: 191).

‘The most important insight from early development economics was that systemic changes need
coordination’ (Chang 1999: 192).

Successful coordination requires a state which has the necessary tools to deal with the burden, and is
not merely the guardian of certain freedoms.

In East Asia, it had been judged that a theory of neo-liberal model of economy was not suitable as a
state policy aimed at accelerating socio-economic development, long before this very neo-liberal
ideology became the world dominating doctrine and a decade or so later turned out to be a failure
