Abstract

[Grinberg analyses the processes of ‘state-led’ industrialisation in South Korea and Brazil. Challenging mainstream institutionalist accounts, he argues that these have been concrete forms of realisation of the production of relative surplus-value on a world scale. Following Iñigo Carrera, Grinberg claims that this global process has determined capitalist development in Brazil and Korea in specifically different forms. While the process of capital accumulation in Brazil revolves around the production of primary commodities for world markets and the recovery of ground-rent by industrial capital, in South Korea, it centres on the production of industrial commodities for the world market with a highly disciplined and relatively cheap labour-force performing automation-driven simplified functions. Grinberg uses the experience of the steel industries to further explain the bases for ‘state-led industrialisation’.]
