Summary: "This book is an attempt to approach an explanation of underdevelopment through the analysis of the production and exchange relations of dependence within the world process of capital accumulation. Hence the choice of its title. We distinguish three main stages or periods in this world embracing process of capital accumulation and capitalist development: mercantilist (1500-1770), industrial capitalist (1770-1870), and imperialist (1870-1930)." -- From the preface.
