Document Summary

Very few countries have managed to catch up: but there are some exceptions: asian tigers: newly industrialized countries: taiwan, south korea, hong kong, South korea: in 1960 the us gdp to over ,000 gdp. From poorer than much of africa, to some of the richest places in the world. Developmental state: state took an active role in the form of export-oriented industrialization. This challenges the dependency theory: by fully inserting themselves into the market- embraced it rather then broke ties with the core and neo-classical economics: does not like state intervention. 3 parts of theory: state:-technocratic: staffed by highly educated, qualified officials- grouped together and given powers eg: ministry of international trade and. Interventionist: state role in the economy eg:trade through tarriffs. 3: strong: some states are stronger/capacity then others: carry out the goals. Developmental state is technocratic, autonomous, interventionist and strong. Authoritarian: no free speech, violence, the dev state goes hand in hand with totalitarian.
