Abstract

The paper sees two alternative models being put forward for latin american development. Broadly speaking both agree on the need to maintain an acceptable degree of macro-economic balance, in a wish to seek out import substitutes and expand the economy. Furthermore both see a call for a re-thinking of the state as such. This notwithstanding, their chosen methods for setting about the task are opposed. While the neo-liberally inspired regressive model emphasizes a financial re-adjustment leading on to an optimizing of existing comparative advantages, the structuralist model seeks to create comparative advantages through industrialization policies which would harness technological inputs to the productive process. The region and decentralization are here held to be factors of prime importance within the latter or positive adjustment model which is here seen as calling for both new planning theory and practise were it to be able to get under away.
