Chapter Chapter 2 in The Core-Periphery Divide in the European Union, 2019, pp 15-51 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter gives an overview of the Latin American dependency school (LADS) that influenced the European dependency school (EDS). It presents important representatives of LADS and their approaches. The chapter treats the ‘ideology of national bourgeois development’ and argues that LADS saw no primacy of either internal or external dependencies of the peripheries in their relations to the core in one global capitalist economy. Furthermore the role of classes and states LADS thinking concerning core–periphery relations are being stressed. The chapter concludes by inquiring into alternatives as suggested by LADS, development by socialism, and the concept of self-reliance, respectively.
