After alimited experience with neoliberalism, the country has embraced new forms of state engagement in the economy and social relations. Because these changes are recent and have not yet been fully consolidated, the resulting constellationcan be viewed as new state activism(NSA), a term that suggests neither areturn to the past nor a clearly consolidated alternative model. New state activism (NSA) embraces innovation in governance in two respects: (1) Innovation as an end i sencouraged, particularly in industrial policy. Specialized measures designedto boost select market sectors have been adopted successfully over objections that governments were not able to strategically identify targets. (2) Innovation characterizes the means by which policies are implemented, and in particular, features partnerships between the government andthe private sector that improve capacity on both sides.
