"How one nation can grow rich at the expense of another has become one of the central problems of economics in the era of neo-coloniamism. Traditional doctrine, resting on Ricardo's theory of comparative costs, which as dominated investigation into this problem for a century and a half, cannot provide an answer. Emmanuel has written a path-breaking study by reversing the conventional assumptions. This change in point of view enables him to subject the phenomena of international trade to an entirely fresh scrutiny." - back cover
