Dependency Theory After Fifty Years: The Continuing Relevance of Latin American Critical Thought: Studies in Critical Social Sciences, cartea 207

Autor Claudio Katz Traducere de Stanley Malinowitz
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 feb 2022
This book received the Libertador Prize for Critical Thought (2018), demonstrating a renewal of interest in Dependency Theory. That conception initially included distinct forms of Marxism, liberalism, and developmentalism that should be differentiated, despite sharing the same name. The later retreat of that approach contrasts with the growing present-day relevance of its postulates; Latin America bears the effects of dependency even more acutely than in the past, making it imperative to understand the logic of its peripheral subordination. Dependency Theory in its original form is insufficient for explaining contemporary reality; it must be updated to interpret the current modalities of dependent capitalism. This book offers analytical clues to that reinvention.
