Abstract: Taking into account the international context, the theoretical debate, and thelessons that could be extracted from successful countries, the article examines the tradepolicy basis that should be followed by Argentina to get a dynamic international insertion.It is pointed out that trade policy could be used as an instrument of both, macroeconomicand microeconomic gestion. Its employment as a suboptimal instrument could be justifiedwhen the optimal ones are restricted (for example the case of the exchange rate policy inArgentina). It is also emphasized that it is necessary to follow a close coordination betweentrade and industrial and technological policies to get high levels of investment in thetradable sectors, an increase in competitivity based in higher levels of productivity, and an improvement in the profile of specialization. Finally, it is pointed out the importance ofimproving the autonomy and efficiency of the State to guarantee the effectiveness of thepublic interventions. JEL Classification: F13; O20.
