Catching up and Falling behind: An Appraisal of Brazilian Industrial Policy in the Twenty-First Century

Abstract: Amidst analyses of industrial policy's renaissance in Latin America, Brazil is often hailed as the paragon of this movement. The mix of old and new institutions and instruments would constitute a unique effort in promoting industrial development in the post-neoliberal period. However, this experience has been followed by middling results of industrial performance. Reviewing an emerging literature about the institutionalization and results of the Brazilian industrial policy, we argue that important aspects of p… Show more

“…Nevertheless, no matter how innovation-orientated they claimed to be, the industrial policies in Argentina and Brazil were path dependent and conservative in nature. Rather than supporting new and innovative sectors, the industrial policies, such as those implemented in Brazil, were formulated to subsidize traditional and low technology sectors (Kasahara & Botelho, 2016).

Et eksempel i så måte kan vaere Brasils krav til lokalt innhold i oljesektoren (Melby 2015;Kasahara & Botelho 2016), et virkemiddel som også ble brukt på norsk sokkel, men som for eksempel Colombia har avstått fra i den nylig signerte frihandelsavtalen med Norge (Lundeberg, Bank & Holguín 2009). Venezuelas økonomiske nasjonalisme derimot var til direkte hinder for Statoils videre satsing i landet (se figur 4.6 og Bull, kapittel 6).…”

“…Esse debate sobre posições contrárias ou a favor da adoção de políticas industriais muitas vezes se demonstra improdutivo. A partir disso, sugere-se a aceitação de que a intervenção estatal através de políticas industriais continuará sendo uma ferramenta importante de desenvolvimento e o foco em análises mais precisas sobre experiências de sucesso, que ajudem a se entender melhor como e porque estes casos chegaram a resultados positivos (KASAHARA; BOTELHO, 2016).…”
