In 1960, Latin America and Spain had the same level of economic and social development, but, in just twenty years, Spain raced ahead. This book provides an in-depth analysis of the design and implementation of developmental state policies in both regions and examines the significant variance in success between Latin America and Spain. The second volume in a trilogy, this collection of studies on state institutions in Latin America and Spain covers the period 1930-1990 and focuses on the successes and failures of the developmental states. This book assumes a wide social science perspective on the phenomenon of the developmental state, focusing on the design, creation and management of public institutions, as well as the creation of national projects and political identities related to development strategies. Presents a new theoretical and empirical understanding of development as a historical process by employing a comprehensive social science approach to go beyond mere economic treatments Dedicates separate sections to state institutions, bureaucracies, economic policies, and nation-building projects to provide readers a better understanding of the close connections between national projects, national and political identities, and developmental strategies Provides new insights and original hypotheses on the reasons and determinants for the success and failure of developmental institutions, considering diverse national cases with strong variations in their degree of economic and political achievement
