- W2279920443 abstract "Abstract: The reduction of the size of the welfare state is one of the defining elements of the wave of policy reform that swept Latin America in the 1980s and 1990s. What accounts for this dramatic policy change? To explain this trend toward shrinking the state, I develop a meaning-oriented explanation, though one which also takes into account the importance of uncertainty. Building on the literature on epistemic communities and “normative isomorphism,” I argue one important, though often neglected, mechanism shaping these policy decisions was the formation of a coherent team of neoliberal economists. These neoliberal economists carried ideas that fixed particular meanings to material trends that in turn legitimated shrinking the state. More specifically, utilizing a new dataset that codes the professional characteristics of Latin American policymakers, I find from analyzing a sample of fourteen countries from 1972 to 1997 that neoliberal interpretations of rising public sector burdens helped shape the trend toward state shrinking. Significantly, I also find that without the presence of such interpretations a rising public sector debt burden does not result in significant state shrinking." @default.
