The volume addresses three myths tied to Eurocentric forms of thinking: objectivist and universalist knowledges, the decolonization of the modern world, and developmentalism. All three myths, the authors argue, conceal the continued hierarchical and unequal relations of domination and exploitation between European and Euro-American centers and non-European peripheral regions. In this volume, world-system scholars address these and related aspects of the modern\/colonial capitalist world-system. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAddressing the myth of universalist knowledge, the volume reminds us that our knowledge is situated in the gender, class, racial, and sexual hierarchies of a specific region in the world-system, while the coloniality of power additionally situates our knowledge. The volume further argues that the postcolonial era retains the hierarchy of colonialism, and the possibility of national development without global structural changes is one of the greatest 20th-century myths. Taking these perspectives into consideration, the contributors examine and help to refine classic world-system theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ramón Grosfoguel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0313318042\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780313318047\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.04h x 6.76w x 1.24d","brand":"Ramón Grosfoguel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48152960794879,"sku":"9780313318047","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f7536bda-6382-491f-8ce9-87b6147b71e8.jpg?v=1770780358","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-moderncolonialcapitalist-world-system-in-the-ramzen-grosfoguel-9780313318047","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
