Paper Summary:

This essay suggests that Third World debt and underdevelopment are inextricably linked to European and American colonialism and imperialism. Historical and recent examples are given. Dependency theory is discussed.

From the Paper:

"Dependency theory emerged out of Latin America in the 1960s, during a time when modernization theory, which stresses heavy industrialization and laissez-faire economics, was increasing in popularity. It examines the root problems of poor countries, taking into account their histories?which are very different from those of the European and American superpowers, and by drawing connections between the imperialism of the last five centuries, and the neocolonialism of today."

I'm studying at Wilfrid Laurier University. This is my fourth year majoring in International Development (which includes a lot of economics, anthropology and political science) and doing a minor in Women's Studies. All the essays I've submitted recieved marks between 80% and 98%. Most are for 300-level courses. The arguments can be kind of lefty, but I always back up my arguments and the profs seem to like them.
