In development studies, statism means the direction and control of economic and social affairs by the state. The practices included: investment in public enterprises; centralized economic planning; the regulation of employment; and other price-distorting interventions in the market. The economic aims are to promote industrialization and protection against foreign competition; politically, the state and the government might gain in domestic legitimacy. Inspired more by nationalism than by socialism, statism is compatible with state capitalism. Since 1980 statism has been challenged by economic liberalism and structural adjustment reforms. Statism is also referred to as dirigisme and étatisme. France and Japan were classic statist examples.

Statism (or etatism) is a term that may refer to either one or both of the following:
Statism is sometimes used to refer to state capitalism or highly regulated market economies with large amounts of government intervention, and also to refer to state socialism or co-operative economic systems that use the state, through nationalization, as a means of running industry in the interest of the majority.
Definition: concentration of economic controls and planning in the hands of government often extending to state ownership of industry.
Statism reached its highest point in the centrally planned fascist and Stalinist countries, but exists in varying degrees in every country in the world [4] including capitalist countries like USA. Between the end of World War II and the fall of the USSR many Western European nations ran 'mixed' (10-45% public) economies, and in some Asian countries such as Singapore, 60% of the GDP generated in Singapore comes from government-linked companies. State-run industries are part of the public sector, sometimes referred to as the state sector.
