Abstract
ABSTRACT A developmental state is autonomous and pursues the national economic interest. The extent of a state's autonomy is related to the characteristics of its predominant economic sector. The degree to which a state pursues the national interest is related to its vulnerability. Both autonomy and vulnerability can be influenced via policy. The creation of an integrated market system based upon broad based agricultural development creates an environment in which autonomy can be increased and the national economic interest can be formulated and pursued. Alternatively, the creation of large, highly diversified business groups can also serve as a basis for autonomous policy making in the national economic interest. These ideas are illustrated with the experiences of South Korea and Taiwan.
