Industrial Policy and the Great Divergence

Réka Juhász and Claudia Steinwender

No 31736, NBER Working Papers from National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc

Abstract: We discuss recent work evaluating the role of the government in shaping the economy during the long 19th century, a practice we refer to as industrial policy. States deployed a vast variety of different policies aimed at, primarily, but not exclusively, fostering industrialization. A thin, but growing literature has started to evaluate the economic effects of these policies, but many questions remain open for study.
