This title was first published in 2001. An important critical study
of the theories of dependency both past and present. Since the
theories of dependency are based on the Marxian notion of
exploitation and backwardness, the book starts with the elaboration
of the Marxian theory of development and underdevelopment. The book
analyses various concepts and precepts of dependency as well as
critically discussing the individual theories of Baran, Frank,
Amin, Emmanuel, Prebisch and Singer. The contributions of more
recent writers including Furtado, Kay, Wallerstein and Marini are
also considered. The main focus of the book lies in the thorough
analysis of all the important traditional as well as modern
theories of dependency. The main message of the present book is
that the phenomenology of dependency is still relevant as a
methodology of study of development and underdevelopment. The book
incorporates some pressing contemporary issues to give fresh
flavour to the old dependency debate. A special feature of the book
lies in the critical appraisal for each of the theories studied.
The book is designed to serve as a valuable compendium for students
of economic development and political economy and for those
interested in the study of the economic backwardness of the Third
World countries.
