Resumo

We analyze the evolution of manufacturing and development in 22 American countries for the period 2000-2010, following our previous studies of the period 1980-1999. We find some advance in industrial development of several American countries for the period of study, but unfortunately we may notice stagnation and even diminution in some developing countries. Achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) requires that international cooperation play a role to foster industrialization in many countries with a low level of manufacturing activities, given the positive impact of industry on non industrial development. The paper contributes to show empirical evidence in favour of Kaldor´s perspective on the positive role of industrialization.
