Abstract

This study analyzes the evolution of economic development in American countries for the period 2000-2018, with particular focus on the positive role of industrialization in order to foster development and poverty eradication. Sustainable development implies not only to conceal economic development with environmental protection but also needs a sustainable balance of payments. We analyze manufacturing and non-manufacturing production and some indicators of poverty, environment and quality of life in America. Our main conclusion is that both national policies and international cooperation should be addressed to a quick diminution of poverty, and to foster sustainable development. National policies on human capital, social capital and physical capital are important as well as to foster international cooperation in this regard.
