In this essay I make a brief account of what economic development consists of; its effects and its sources. I expose the strong ups and downs in Chile’s degree of progress from 1973 to the present, and outline how progress could be made from the current level of development of the national economy. I illustrate this with some proposals for public policy reforms to prioritize and coordinate, to recover growth sustainability and reinforce inclusion. Along the way, I show how two beliefs shared in certain sectors are mere beliefs, without real support: a supposed success of the dictatorship in achieving sustainable growth and development, and the belief that a single economic model ruled in the “30 or 50 years.”
