World Systems Theory - MIT
World Systems Theory by Carlos A. Martínez-Vela 1 1. The Approach World-system theory is a macrosociological perspective that seeks to explain the dynamics of the “capitalist world economy” as a “total social system”. Its first major articulation, and classic example of this approach, is associated with Immanuel
