Developmental State

A Developmental State is a type of government that actively seeks to promote economic growth and development. It typically involves strong government involvement in the economy, focusing on strategic planning, investment in key industries, and the creation of favorable conditions for businesses. This state prioritizes social and economic goals, often investing in education, infrastructure, and technology to enhance productivity. Countries like South Korea and Singapore in the late 20th century are examples of Developmental States, where government policies guided rapid industrialization and improved living standards.
