Abstract

In this paper I propose new or relatively new steps in the construction of New
Developmentalism: the existence of current account policies, the policy of growth with
current account deficit, besides the current and the industrial equilibriums, the equilibrium
with current account deficit, and the extended Dutch disease. The three equilibriums are
depicted in a new figure. A new form of neutralizing the Dutch disease using import tariffs
and export subsidies on manufactured goods is discussed.
