Rethinking the State and Development: The Importance of Palliative Development

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 1 –19

[Globalization has changed the models of development that are open to most states both in the industrialized and less industrialized world. The debt crisis of the last 30 years has challenged import substitution models that combined multinational penetration with substantial state investment in...

What Would Have Happened If the Government Had Done Nothing

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 20 –32

[The previous chapter argued that it is impossible to estimate the effects of government policies to raise employment and income without having some sort of idea of what levels of employment or income would have occurred in the absence of government intervention. This implies using some sort of...

O’Connorian Models of Development: How States Literally Build Economic Growth

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 33 –60

[Chapter 1 made a strong argument that the state policies that create employment and reduce poverty in the Third World are often the same policies that create employment and reduce poverty in the wealthy nations. This is in contrast to models of “late development” where the role of the state is...

Major Infrastructure and the Larger Economy: The Central Importance of Airports

Schuett, Jessica

Pages: 61 –74

[This chapter takes the O’Connorian argument that states promote economic development by building infrastructure — and expands it beyond the hotel and restaurant sector to the economy as a whole. Nominally, the programs discussed in Chapter 3 were tourism development programs. However, PRODETUR...

How Brazilian Vocational Education Reduces Poverty — Even If No One Wants to Hire the Trainees

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 75 –103

[One of the most important public policies for the reduction of unemployment is the promotion of job training and vocational education. Of all the O’Connorian state interventions, Vocational training is one of the most appealing. Education is clearly correlated with favorable labor market...

Government Effectiveness in the Face of Debt

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 104 –113

[The fundamental claim of O’Connor’s Fiscal Crisis of the State is that when the governments are deprived of financial resources, they are unable to fulfill their natural function of reproducing capitalism. This argument seemed very foreign to O’Connor’s American leftist readers of the early...

Why Reducing Taxes for Employers Does Not Raise Employment

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 114 –125

[The previous chapter showed that development expenditures should be financed from some sort of public funding that avoids international debt. An obvious source of such monies is tax revenue. Thus, in principle, insuring that the state has adequate financial resources to perform its functions...

How Rent and Urban Verticalization Can Reduce Employment

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 126 –140

[The literature on economic development in Latin America pays very little attention to urban space and rent. Urban geographers often focus on general questions of urbanism and the spatial distribution of economic activities within and across cities — and pay less attention to whether the...
Available

Frontier Development as Job Creation — With Social Costs

Cohn, Samuel

Pages: 141 –158

[Brazil, like every other land-based nation in the Western Hemisphere, has a frontier. It is not unreasonable to posit that the presence of a frontier has some effect on economic growth. Frontiers provide land, which is a form of capital. They provide mineral extractive sources that can be...

When Does Not Being Green Reduce Employment?

Watkins, David

Pages: 159 –164

[In the chapter on PRODETUR and the construction of infrastructure, we found ecological projects had no effect on tourism employment. However, this does not mean that ecological considerations are completely irrelevant to the economy. Green development can promote economic growth — while...
