Abstract	El tema de este articulo se ubica en el ambito de la historia economica nacional e internacional de la posguerra. Las instituciones que se crearon despues de la Segunda Guerra Mundial se consolidaron durante la decada de los cincuenta y sentaron las bases de la estabilidad mundial. Fue un periodo de optimismo, orientado a lograr una economia de paz, durante el cual se alcanzo un crecimiento economico constante, aumento la urbanizacion y el Estado intervino en la economia, aunque tal intervencion se presento en dos modalidades contrapuestas: la que favorecia la economia de mercado y la que pretendia la total planificacion de la produccion. En los dos hemisferios del mundo bipolar, organizado bajo la hegemonia estadounidense y la sovietica, se expandio la adquisicion de bienes de consumo, aunque con valores y condiciones de operacion social distintas. El trabajo concluye resaltando la importancia de basar la estrategia de desarrollo en la satisfaccion de las necesidades del consumidor y no en las del productor individual o estatal. Clasificacion JEL: P51. Abstact The subject matter of this article is situated in the context of national, and international economic history of the post Second World War era. The institutions that were created in that period consolidated, during the 1950´s, the basis of world stability. It was an optimistic time, directed towards the achievement of an economy of peace, during which time constant economic growth was reached, urbanization grew and there was State intervention in the economy. This intervention apparently involved two opposite development processes: one that favoured a market economy, and that which aimed for total planning of production. In the two different hemispheres of this bipolar world, organized by Soviet and United States hegemony, acquisition of consumer goods flourished, although it was accompanied by different social values and operativa models. However, this work finishes by underlining the importance of basing development strategy on the satisfaction of consumer needs, and not on those of the individual, or State ones.
