In this important intervention, renowned scholar Claudio Katz argues that, while the concept has fallen out of favor, its postulates are being proven more and more true by present-day events. In Latin America, for example, the effects of dependency are more acutely felt than in the past, making it imperative to understand the logic of the region's peripheral subordination. In \u003cem\u003eDependency Theory After Fifty Years\u003c\/em\u003e, Katz shows that in its original form Dependency Theory is incapable of providing a convincing explanation of contemporary reality; it must be updated to interpret the current modalities of dependent capitalism. This book offers analytical clues to beginning that reinvention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecipient of the Libertador Prize for Critical Thought (2018).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claudio Katz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1642598135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781642598131\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Haymarket Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Claudio Katz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069481775359,"sku":"9781642598131","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_51f47c3c-2773-4ea6-b029-7a308846b12d.jpg?v=1685424951","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dependency-theory-after-fifty-years-claudio-katz-9781642598131","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
