Answer to Question 1

The key here is to choose positive steps - R&D, training, promoting competition - as opposed to restrictive steps that favor particular firms and create monopolies.

Answer to Question 2

The Santiago Consensus stresses poverty alleviation and the government taking responsibility for poverty alleviation. The Washington Consensus was much more free market based. See the chapter for more details.
