This edited volume discusses the development theory advanced by the
Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) in
the 1940s, and its transformations through the second half of the
twentieth century. In this time frame, the authors identify two
approaches: structuralism (1950-1980) and neo-structuralism
(1980-onwards). The contributors describe the transition in terms
of economic theory and policy; the conceptualization of the State;
and the consideration of space on regional and global scales. They
argue that structuralism is still relevant for understanding the
current problems of development if a careful and appropriate
recovery and update of its main ideas and concepts is made in
relation to the current context of globalization and
internationalization of production and finance.
