This paper seeks to contribute to the advancement of studies on the NationalState and economic development. For that, I used an original and singular transdisciplinaryapproach based on Pierre Bourdieu’s sociological theory and economic history. Themethodological procedures were bibliographic research of historical and inductive analysisof the economy. The results obtained were that, for the construction of a NationalDevelopmental State, society, first, needs to establish meta-capital and meta-field immersedin the developmental precepts and concentrators of soft power and hard power to, subsequently, execute the project of expansion, integration and sophistication of theproductive structure.
