History since antiquity has been characterized by the unequal development of regions. But it is only in the modern era that polarization has become the imminent byproduct of the integration of the entire planet into the capitalist system. Samir Amin remains one of the world's most influential thinkers about the changing nature of North-South relations in the development of contemporary capitalism. In this highly prescient book, originally published in 1997, he provides a powerful analysis of the new unilateral capitalist era following the collapse of the Soviet model, and the apparent triumph of the market and globalization.
