The State as Strategic Manager?

Dan Breznitz and Carsten Zimmermann

Challenge, 2008, vol. 51, issue 4, 70-88

Abstract: What kind of guidelines can be established for a government policy to promote economic growth? Many now believe there should be almost none. However, these authors think very differently. They argue that the management literature contains a framework that supports constructive government policies. Government can act much like a strategic manager in a conglomerate, not picking industrial winners but creating general capabilities and incentives.
