dc.description.abstractLa misión del Banco Mundial de 1949, encabezada por Lauchlin Currie, recomendó un ataque integral a los círculos viciosos entrelazados del subdesarrollo mediante una ampliación del mercado local e internacional y la reforma de la formulación de la política macroeconómica. En 1950 el gobierno colombiano invitó a Currie para que volviera como asesor de una nueva junta de planeación nacional. En 1952 Albert Hirschman también fue contratado como asesor de esa junta. Este artículo discute los acalorados desacuerdos entre estos dos distinguidos economistas, su influencia en la teoría y la práctica del desarrollo económico en Colombia y del Banco Mundial; en particular sus puntos de vista sobre el enfoque de la planeación basado en un programa integral o en proyectos individuales.
dc.description.abstractThe 1949 World Bank mission headed by Lauchlin Currie recommended an integral attack on the interlocking vicious circles of underdevelopment through a widening of domestic and international markets and a reform of macroeconomic policy formulation. In 1950 Currie was invited by the Colombian Government to return as adviser to a new national planning board. In 1952 Albert Hirschman was also hired as an adviser to this board. This paper discusses the heated disagreements between these two distinguished economists, their influence on the theory and practice of economic development in Colombia and of the World Bank, and in particular their focus on planning based on an integral program versus individual project approaches to planning.
