Description
The economic liberalization in developing countries is making many sectors succumb to competitive pressures. Governments face the dilemma of how to help firms compete without falling back into failed "dirigiste" policies. Based on findings on the importance of inter-firm co-operation, public private collaboration and local policies in boosting competitiveness, this text analyzes how much these elements explain the dynamism of two agroindustrial sectors in Argentina and Chile, dairy and fresh fruit respectively.
