ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the role of the State and government in development. In the first part, the approach used is delimited and the needs and real possibilities of public participation in the development process are specified, concluding with the need to reform the public administration. The scope of action of both the State and the government is considered after. The former includes governance; economic institutions and security; while the latter covers national infrastructure in a broad sense, fiscal and financial sector management, social policies, public services, and productive development. Its conclusion leads to the notion that “correct” policies are not enough, without the institutional support they require.
