Abstract
The world has come a long way since the heyday of the dependency research program (DRP, see Chapter 1 of this volume). The rapid industrialization of East Asia, the fall of communism, the advent of the Washington consensus and global neoliberalism, among other processes, all contributed in different ways to the demise of the DRP as theoretical and analytical tool to understand the problems of development and more generally, to understand the dynamics of global capitalism.
