Abstract

This paper offers an overall picture of economic nationalism and its relationship with developmentalism – the form of economic and political organization alternative to economic liberalism that involves a moderate but effective state intervention. Why nationalism is a modern ideology; how it is associated with the nation and the nation-state; why it confronts with the West’s imperialism. Why, given the competition among nation-states that characterizes global capitalism, there is an “anti” element to nationalism. Why developing countries must challenge the West’s ideological hegemony and define a project of economic development that makes them able to compete internationally and make the catching up.
