description The present work confronts the industrial policies followed by the South American nations with those of the Southeast Asian countries, and states that the influence of the Washington Consensus on the former allowed to disrupt their industrial development, while the type of economic development in Asia has been more successful, framed in recent decades in what is known as the Beijing Consensus. A comparative study is made of the evolution of different economic and social indicators of the South American nations, as well as of Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, using United Nations-Comtrade trade data and World Bank World Development Report 2015 indicators. It is found that the persistence of industrial policies and the link to international trade explain an important part of the Asian results. A recovery of these policies in South America could help to activate the economic dynamics offered by the export of natural resources.

El presente trabajo confronta las políticas industriales seguidas por las naciones suramericanas con las de los países del Sureste del Asia y plantea que la influencia del Consenso de Washington en las primeras permitió desvertebrar su desarrollo industrial, mientras que el tipo de desarrollo económico en Asia ha sido más exitoso, enmarcado en las últimas décadas en lo que se conoce como Consenso de Beijing.Para ello se hace un estudio comparativo de la evolución de diferentes indicadores económicos y sociales de las naciones suramericanas, así como de Malasia, Tailandia y Vietnam, utilizando datos de comercio de las Naciones Unidas-Comtrade e indicadores del World Development Report 2015 del Banco Mundial. Se encuentra que la persistencia de las políticas industriales y gran vinculación al comercio internacionalexplican parte importante de los resultados asiáticos. Una recuperación de dichas políticas en Suramérica podría ayudar a activar la dinámica económica que no ofrece la exportación de recursos naturales.
