{"product_id":"industrial-policy-and-development-mario-cimoli-9780199235278","title":"Industrial Policy and Development: The Political Economy of Capabilities Accumulation","description":"In the 1990s, development policy advocated by international financial institutions was influenced by Washington Consensus thinking. This strategy, based largely on liberalization, privatization, and price-flexibility, downplayed, if not disregarded, the role of government in steering the processes of technological learning and economic growth. With the exception of the Far East, many developing countries adopted the view that industrial policy resulted in inefficiency and poor economic growth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAmple historical evidence shows that industrial policy does work, when the right technologies and industries are supported and when appropriate combinations of policy measures are implemented. This book provides an in-depth exploration of which industrial policies have been successful, the trade-offs associated with these microeconomic approaches to growth and development, and the opportunities and constraints associated with the current organization of international economic relations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mario Cimoli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199235279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199235278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 596\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.30d","brand":"Mario Cimoli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054702129407,"sku":"9780199235278","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a353917d-c981-4a4f-949f-77d2bb724071.jpg?v=1685031490","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/industrial-policy-and-development-mario-cimoli-9780199235278","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
