rigorous and critical scrutiny but also seeks to 'politicize' this seemingly
neutral policy. In doing so, the essay suggests that the URR was not a
means to an end, but rather an integral moment of a larger class-based
strategy - paradoxically named 'growth with equity' - that was designed
to stabilize and reproduce a development model that has been in place
for more than two decades, but also which serves the interests of power-
ful transnational financial capitals and industrial conglomerates. There-
fore, those that uncritically celebrate the Chilean capital control as a
prototype policy tool for the developing world are unwittingly abstract-
ing from its function as part of a class-based strategy aimed at protecting
an existing mode of accumulation that not only rests on high levels of
social inequality, but also reproduces a mode of accumulation that is
based on a growing dependence on short-term, financial inflows from
which a minority of the population benefits.
Before proceeding with the historical materialist analysis within which
we will critically evaluate the URR, it is important briefly highlight the
terms of the debate that the present analysis seeks to transcend.
The Chilean government views the URR as a way of dealing with huge
surges of short-term capital (hot money). The URR is said to accomplish
this task in that it is an indirect, price-based measure that operates as an
'asymmetric Tobin tax' that discriminates between capital leaving the
country (capital outflows) and that entering the country (capital inflows).
Like the Tobin tax, the URR levies fees on foreign exchange transactions
in the hope of limiting speculation (Eichengreen, 1999). The official
objective of the Chilean URR, was, by clamping down on short-term flows,
to attract longer-term capital to support currency stabilization and thereby
prevent further revaluations, which would inevitably hurt firms that are
dependent on export markets (Krugman, 1998; Stiglitz, 1999; Laurens and
Cardoso, 1998; Nadal-De Simone and Sorsa, 1999; Ffrench-Davis, 2000).
Those in favour of the URR also argued that it is able to weed out the
negative effects of arbitrage capital flows (i.e. buying cheaply in one mar-
ket and selling dearly in another) while harnessing their benefits (Massad,
1998; Stiglitz, 1999). In doing so, the URR encourages more fruitful and
stable forms of investment, such as foreign direct investments (FDI), as
opposed to short-term inflows (Griffith-Jones, 1996; 1999: 1). According
to some sympathizers, the URR has an additional benefit in that it created
some breathing space for the Chilean authorities in the form of increased
autonomy in monetary policy formation, so as to improve banking and
financial regulatory structures (Eichengreen, 1999).
Whether the Chilean URR actually achieved these aims, however, is
intensely debated. Some writers argue that URR's goal of stemming

about 80 percent of the recorded growth between 1976 and 1981, but
also was comprised of speculative capital (Petras and Leiva, 1994: 32-3).
The setting of high interest rates supported this growth pole, since this
policy had the effect of luring short-term capital into the country.
The tide began to turn in 1978 when a surge of short-term capital
inflows led to a revaluation of the peso, and subsequently pushed up
the price of Chilean exports. The trade imbalance that ensued led to a
mounting public deficit, which resulted in greater financing through
foreign loans. In the attempts to stop this vicious cycle, the Chilean
government implemented a URR between 1978 and 1982. The official
rationale for implementing this capital control, which was more strin-
gent than its more recent counterpart, was to stem inflation by keeping
interest rates high (cf. Edwards, 1999). However, as in the case of the
more recent version of the URR, it merely allowed the government to
continue to pursue a macroeconomic policy that supported the devel-
opment model through currency devaluations and high interest rates
and thereby dealing with the expanding trade imbalance.
Chile registered impressive levels of expansion during between 1977
and 1980, with annual GDP growth averaging 8.6 percent. However,
when viewed historically, this expansion was only a recovery of the
aggregate levels of activity proceeding a deep recession of 1975. Specific-
ally, Chile's per capita GDP was only 5 percent higher than it was in
1971 (Fortin, 1985: 190-2). More important, the Chilean development
model was based on a deep-seated dependency on financial speculators,
for whom the acquisition of productive businesses was merely a profit-
able short-term manner of investing liquid resources, usually in the form
of loans. It should not come as a surprise that Chile experienced high
levels of foreign indebtedness throughout this period. Between 1974 and
1981, for example, 20 percent of per capita growth in Chile went to
payments of interests and profits abroad (Fortin, 1985: 191). In 1982, the
Chilean bubble burst as capital flows dried up and headed to safer and
more profitable havens, particularly the US with its mammoth increase
in real interest rates (e.g. from 0.8 percent over the 1971-80 period to
11.0 percent in 1982). Like many developing countries at the time, Chile
entered into a debt crisis in 1982.
Chile's external debt was distinct from other Latin American countries
in that the majority of it was private debt held mostly by banks and
financieras (Scott, 1996). The amount owing was not insignificant. For
example, in December 1981, the superintendent of banking announced
that financial institutions owed US$2.5 billion - double their combined

capital. By 1982, national reserves had fallen by a billion dollars and the
daily demand on the Central Bank of Chile was US$22 million (Martinez
and Diaz, 1996: 58-9, my emphasis). The immediate problem facing
the Pinochet regime was how to resuscitate the economy whilst dealing
with a high debt load and less than favourable international condi-
tions, most notably the shortage of voluntary capital flows (in the form
of bank loans) to the developing world between 1982 and 1987 (Ffrench-
Davis et al., 1995), which was being replaced by private portfolio capital
inflows.
The reaction of the government was to substantially increase public
spending. During the period between 1983 and 1988, average govern-
ment spending, as a proportion of GDP was 25.1 percent. Despite the
rhetoric of fiscal discipline, the level of government spending (exclud-
ing public debt repayments and fiscal revenue) was higher under the
Pinochet regime than in 1961-70 (Martinez and Diaz, 1996: 66). Moreover,
to hold on to its strong support base in these unsettling times the Pinochet
regime guaranteed the transfer of assets between capitals was made
easier through further deregulations and privatizations. Between 1985
and 1990, this move was augmented by a debt conversion mechanism
(Chapter XVIII and XIX of the Chilean Central Bank's Compendium of
Rules and International Exchange). This mechanism gave investors dis-
counts amounting to approximately 46 percent of the value of the assets
in extractive industries in logging, fishing and mining- and, which were
not available under the DL-600. According to the United Nations
Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC),
during the period in which Chapter XIX was in force (1985-90) the
Chilean government generated close to 80 percent of its total FDI flows.
During the second half of the 1980s, FDI increased under the mecha-
nism of the DL-600. Most of these inflows seeped into new mining
projects, which according to the ECLAC, accounted for 54 percent of
DL-600 inflows from 1985 to 1990 (Ffrench-Davis et al., 1995; ECLAC
2000: 91).
These ownership transfers had several important and overlapping
effects on the character of the accumulation regime. First, they increased
the material base of already powerful financial and transnational capitals.
Second, because of the threat of investment strike or flight, these transna-
tional interests played an enlarged role in domestic policy formation.
Third, to accommodate their interests, tariffs were lowered and the real
exchange rate (RER) was depreciated by about 70 percent by the end of
1985 (Laurens and Cardoso, 1998). The upshot of which was, of course, a
surge in Chile's exports. In light of the knockdown prices of Chilean
assets and exports, it is unsurprising that the country's industrial perfor-
mance grew at an average of 6.7 percent a year between 1985 and 1990,
compared to -1.3 percent from 1980 to 1985 (ECLAC, 2000b: 91). However,

SOEDERBERG: A HISTORICAL ACCOUNT OF CHILEAN CAPITAL CONTROL
While the URR, along with other policy instruments, did succeed in
neutralizing the effects of new cash inflows, particularly moderating the
inevitable exchange-rate appreciation (Ffrench-Davis et al., 1995), it did
little to stem the amount of these types of inflows entering the country,
which was, also one of its explicit aims. As mentioned at the outset of
this discussion, the URR should not be viewed as a neutral policy that
is an end in itself. Instead it should be assessed as a moment a larger
'growth with equity' objective that was aimed at overcoming the policy
paradox of the Concertacion administration in the wake of changing
external factors in the global political economy. Seen from this angle,
the URR was successful in reproducing a development strategy that
favoured industrial conglomerate and rentier classes, and political elites.
At first blush it appears that Chile enjoyed steady growth rates during
the 1990s. Its average per capita GDP, for example, was 5.3 over the past
decade (ECLAC, 1999: 14). Nevertheless, it is important to underline that
this growth was not accompanied by modest recovery in investment
ratio. Overall investment, for instance, grew much less during the first
half of the 1990s than did capital inflows; most of the flows corresponded
to short-term bond finance, secondary stock market trading and acqui-
sition of privatized firms. Only about one-fourth of net flows assumed
the form of FDI and primary ADRs (Ffrench-Davis and Reisen, 1998:
12-13). Whereas the FDI in gross fixed capital formation, in the 1985-90
was 21.5 percent, it dropped considerably to 9.2 percent from 1990 to1995
(Rasiah, 2000: 946). Moreover, the economy has grown even more depen-
dent on natural resources as it was during the Pinochet regime. Indeed,
'[b]rute raw materials constitute 44 percent of exports, moderately pro-
cessed raw materials constitute 26 percent, and manufactured goods a
modest 10 percent. Under the Concertacion the rate of growth of manu-
factured exports plummeted from 32 percent in 1991 to 8.2 percent in
1997' (Taylor, 2001: 19).

These new capital flows into the country did little to alter the nature
of the development model, especially in terms of economic diversifica-
tion. On the contrary, these swathes were used to prop this strategy up
whilst its transnational capitals continued to raked in profits in the finan-
cial and extractive sectors. This dominance of financial flows over the
productive sphere expressed itself in Chile's balance of payments where
the capital account (inward and outward flow of financial capital) has
increased to the detriment of its current account (imports and exports
of goods and services) (see Table 2).
In response to its deteriorating current account, the government sought
to boost investment in the productive sphere by revising the rules per-
taining to the URR in 1995. For example, the URR was to exclude FDI
and first issues of ADRs. The URR was also applied to credits after their
first rollover. Likewise, the maximum proportion of foreign investment
projects that could be financed through debt was lowered from 70 to 50
percent and the minimum amount of FDI exempted from the reserve
requirement was raised. This step was necessary because trade moved
to less regulated markets, such as over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives
markets (Buch, 1999). Upon closer inspection, however, the nature of
these capital inflows sustained Chile's accumulation strategy that has
been in place since the late 1970s, and concomitantly the interests of
powerful transnational financial bourgeoisie and industrial conglomer-
ates. 'The concentration of wealth of Chilean conglomerates, such as the
likes of Luksic and Angelini, have grown substantially through mergers
and acquisitions as have many foreign transnationals and particularly
Spanish owned groups in the financial sector' (Taylor, 2002; cf. Martinez
and Diaz, 1996; Fazio, 2000). Furthermore, about 60 per of these flows
were diverted into FDI within traditional sectors of resource-extraction,
i.e., copper mining, pulp and paper. As in the 1980s, the majority of
these FDls represented the transfer of ownership through the re-purchase
of existing assets. The remaining 40 percent went into services, espe-
cially the financial sector (Ffrench-Davis et al., 1995; Agosin, 1998). As
in the past, mining continued to be the main focus of interest for foreign
investors. In the period 1990-5, when mining accounted for 58 percent
of total FDI flows. Manufacturers accounted for 15 percent of total
FDI flows in this period, with investments linked largely to resource-
processing industries (agribusiness, foodstuffs, and pulp and paper),
involving low-skilled labour (and thus low-paid) (ECLAC, 2000a).
Two main types of short-term cash flows that entered the financial
sector from 1990 to 1994 were mutual funds and secondary ADRs. While
mutual funds were organized in the major international capital markets,
the issuance of ADRs was managed by a handful of large Chilean corpo-
rations. In effect this allowed for the further concentration of assets of
the Chilean rentier class, while providing cheaper methods of financing

than found at home due to the high interest rates. Contrary to the offi-
cial objectives of the URR in deterring speculative, short-term inflows,
the two most common types of external liabilities (e.g., ADRs and mutual
funds) are relatively liquid. The upshot of which is that both forms of
investment can be rapidly withdrawn from Chile through the formal
foreign exchange market, if investors see fit to sell their assets in the
domestic market. In 1994, for instance, secondary ADR represented an
additional net inflow of 2 percent of the GDP, which could become a
significant source of instability (Ffrench Davis et al., 1995). As in the case
of FDI generated through the DL-600 and debt swaps, mutual funds
and ADRs have not led to an increase in productive capacity leading to
higher wages, or economic growth; but instead in a change in the owner-
ship of Chilean assets. Hugo Fazio (2000) argues that the dominant
foreign interests in Chile are no longer US but Spanish financial houses.
The immediate consequence of which is, of course, a deeper commit-
ment on behalf of the government to the current development model,
which favours industrial and financial transnational capitals.
Capital inflows dropped considerably after 1994 due to the combined
effects of the Mexican currency crisis, the rise in US interest rates, and
tighter financial regulation in Chile (Agosin, 1998). Nevertheless, to lure
capital flows the Chilean state still offers a plethora of incentives,
such as the repatriation of capital one year after an investment, foreign
investors' guarantees of the right to profit remittances, a choice between
the tax regime applicable to national corporations or a fixed rate of tax-
ation on their profits guaranteed for a certain period of time (Ffrench-
Davis et al., 1995). More recently, the Chilean government announced its
plans to abolish the 15 percent capital gains tax levied on foreigners (Latin
American Weekly Report, 30 May, 2000).
As mentioned above, private inflows increased, public flows to the
economy, particularly infrastructure support for the private sector, have
decreased substantially. In 1995, for example, public sector outflows
surpassed large net inflows of private foreign capital (Agosin, 1998).
Coupled with the revenue earned from the URR and from debt-equity
swaps, the government sought to pay off its debt burden. Indeed from
1989 to 1991, the majority of public net outflows took the form of debt
repayments. Paradoxically as the government is maintaining its preferred
debtor status by busily paying off its external debt, the private sector's
external debt rate has skyrocketed (see Table 3). The latter doubled
between 1997 and 1999 and constitutes about 50 percent of Chile's annual
GDP (Taylor, 2001).
The promotion of more liberalized trade of its financial and natural
resources and labour-intensive extraction processes has increased the
power of finance and transnational interests during the 1990s; but this
growth appears to have been sustained by large amounts of borrowing,

1999; Buch, 1999: 6). In this light, the official justification of the URR to
favour equity over debt financing and long-term over short-term financ-
ing fell apart. The country's debt-ridden accumulation strategy required
a steady stream of cash inflows. The concern to maintain these flows
was highlighted by investment strikes arising from what Irene Grabel
(1999) refers to as 'guilt by association' which plagues all emerging
market economies during panics when investors and lenders see these
countries in an undifferentiated fashion. In response to this, the URR
was suspended in 1998. The Chilean state set out to accommodate the
need by raising interest rates to attract inflows. Concurrently they slow
allowed the peso to decline in order to support exports in late 1997. The
government's response to the Asian crisis shows that the URR was itself
one moment of a larger strategy aimed at Chile's integration into the
world market via development model that is based on cheap assets,
labour and exports evolving around primary resource extraction and
finance and services.
8. CONCLUSION
The main objective of the essay has been to subject the Chilean control
to a more rigorous and critical scrutiny by examining it through the
lens of historical materialism. In applying this framework the essay has
suggested that the URR is to be evaluated neither in isolation of politi-
cal and historical considerations, nor as a policy in itself; but rather as a
moment of a larger class-based strategy, paradoxically named 'growth
with equity'. In this manner the URR may be viewed as a means to reach
a particular end, namely: the recreations of an accumulation regime,
which has been in place since the late 1970s, and which served the inter-
ests of powerful transnational financial interests and large manufactur-
ing conglomerates operating in Chile. In this regard, the URR as a moment
of the 'growth with equity' strategy has been successful in reproducing
a development model that by its very nature leads to ever increasing
concentration of wealth in the extractive and financial sectors, as well as
high poverty rates. Moreover, it would be stretching the truth to state
what Chile's former Minister of Finance, Eduardo Aninat, has so boldly
claimed: 'Chile at last has broke free of two long-standing economic
handicaps: a highly volatile pattern of economic growth and a long his-
tory of inflation' (IMF, 2000b: 1). While the high interest rates pursued
by the URR put to rest, at least temporarily, inflationary problems, the
Finance Minister's understanding of stable growth should be seriously
questioned, particularly in terms of which type of growth and in whose
interests?
In all, the Chilean experience should make its supporters hesitant to
embrace country-level capital controls without addressing the underlying

policy paradoxes and power structures associated not only with histor-
ically developing national forms of development models, but also how
these accumulation regimes are intertwined with the existing power rela-
tions in the wider global political economy. To be sure, if these concerns
are left unattended, capital controls can be used as a policy device to
reproduce existing power structures that are founded on income polar-
ization as opposed to striving toward long-term economic stability and
social justice. If we begin to view capital controls as a means to a larger
end, then they can only be truly effective as a policy mechanism if their
ends are also laudable, that is achieving economic stability and univer-
sal social justice.

NOTES
I The Tobin tax, which was first conceived in 1978 by Nobel-prize laureate
James Tobin, was conceived to fall disproportionally on transactions moti-
vated by short-term capital movements. In doing so, 'it would tend to drive
participants with extrapolative expectations from the market, leaving the
price of foreign exchange to be governed mainly by traders with stabilizing
expectations (Eichengreen, 1996: 274).
2 It should be mentioned there is far from a consensus over the URR. Econ-
omists disagree about the effectiveness of the URR's ability to affect interest
rate behaviour as well as moderate speculative capital inflows (Agosin, 1998;
Laban and Larrafn, 1998; Edwards, 1999).
3 According to Paul Drake and Ivan Jaksic (1999), the Chilean model became
famous not only because of its seeming robust economic growth and self-
acclaimed reduction in poverty, but also due to its consistent application of
privatization schemes as well as decentralization strategies concerning
labour.
4 The explosion of the external debt, for example, from 40 percent of GDP in
1979 to 100 percent in 1983; yearly interest payments increased from 3 percent
to 10 percent of GDP. The sharp curtailment of capital inflows in early 1982
amplified the problem and pushed the economy into a deep recession
(Riveros, 1998).
5 Although technically speaking the Concertaci6n is an amalgamation of
around 15 parties, it is represented by two main parties, the Partido Democrata
Cristiano (PDC) and the Partido Socialista (PS).
6 The Aylwin government responded to the second element of the policy
dilemma by implementing an 'anti-poverty' programme, FOSIS (Fund for
Solidarity and Social Investment, Fondo de Solidaridad e Inversi6n Social)
in 1990. As with the 'growth with equity' strategy, the philosophy behind
the FOSIS was not to create social and political change through economic
redistribution; but rather to reproduce the existing system.
