In this paper an analysis of optimum structural change and optimum trade policies for a developing economy is carried out in the context of a neoclassical three-sector open model of economic growth. The sectors are agriculture, light industry, and heavy industry, and the conditions for "staged" and "direct" patterns of development are derived. Some implications of a foreign exchange bottleneck are also derived.
