Abstract

This paper discusses how Prebisch and Fajnzylber, two authors representative of the thought of the Economic Commission for Latin America (ECLA), interpreted the crisis of the industrialization pattern of Latin America since the mid-seventies. The focus of the paper is on technology and income distribution, two variables that played a significant role in shaping the crisis. The ideas of the two authors are compared and ECLA´s criticism to import-substituting
industrialization in the mid-seventies and in the eighties is reviewed. It is argued that although both authors belong to the same theoretical tradition, there is a key difference in how they perceive the viability of peripheral capitalism.
