Opis

This text provides an outline of the main concepts of capitalist theories of development. It seeks to clarify both its theory and history, and also presents a series of critiques of the main problems that capitalist development still has to solve around the world. Key sectors of capitalist development are covered, including electronics, automobiles, agribusiness, apparel, cross-cutting areas of commodity chains and women's work. These chapters ask if capitalism cannot develop the Third World through these industries, then how can it do so at all? The contributors argue that not even the most enthusiastic proponents of the capitalist road to development would argue that capitalism has solved all its problems in the Third World.
