Abstract
It claims that macroeconomic stability is a necessary , but not sufficient precondition for sustained growth. The choice of stabilization instruments has consequences for growth, while the choice of development strategy influences the degree of freedom of the authorities to stabilize the economy. Devaluation is preferred to quantitative restrictions and other heterodox measures. Protectionism, on the other had, increases rigidity and leads to instability. (Author abstract)
