VIDAL DE LA ROSA, Godofredo. Strategic Capacities for Latin American States Development. CONfines relacion. internaci. ciencia política [online]. 2019, vol.15, n.29, pp.35-56.  Epub 12-Jan-2024. ISSN 1870-3569.

The goal of this paper is to address a theoretical reflection, empirically based, on the state of the strategic infrastructural capabilities of the Latin-American States in the XXI century. The specific problem to which this reflection is directed is the relative lag of those capacities for the mobilization or development of social and economic resources. Three basic aspects stand out: the capacity for governance, the capacity for innovation and the capacity to generate social capital. In these three categories, decisive in the modern world, the Latin American States share common characteristics that differentiate them from other regions of the world. Without delving into a definitive typology, the text suggests that the answers to the question of strategic lag require renewing the theoretical and methodological approaches, and advocates an interdisciplinary analytical strategy of political development.
