Description:
Focusing on European economic expansion, Waites (European humanities, The Open U.) examines Europe's role in disseminating the ideas of Western market capitalism throughout much of the world. He discusses the recent dependency and world systems theories of global inequality; the connections formed between Europe and Latin America, Africa, and Asia; the impact of colonialism on indigenous societies, specifically in South Asia and Africa; and the results of decolonization and of the new relationships being formed between Europe and the poor nations it once ruled.
