Abstract

First published in 1991 this text provides an incisive analysis of theories concerning the origins of economic inequality between nations. Central to the author's investigation is the concept of underdevelopment, and a focus on successive Western 'systems of conceptualisation' of the relationship between the west and the rest of the world.
