{"product_id":"delinking-1","title":"Delinking","description":"Is it possible for the Third World to escape from the constraints imposed by the world's economic system? What room for manoeuvre do these states have, and are they condemned to dependence?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese are some of the questions Samir Amin confronts in \u003ci\u003eDelinking\u003c\/i\u003e. He argues that Third World countries cannot hope to raise living standards if they continue to adjust their development strategies in line with the trends set by a fundamentally unequal global capitalist system over which they have no control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe only alternative, he maintains, is for Third World societies to 'delink' from the logic of the global system - each country submitting its external economic relations to the logic of \u003ci\u003edomestic\u003c\/i\u003e development priorities, which in turn requires a broad coalition of popular forces in control of the state. Delinking, he shows, is not about absolute autarchy, but a neutralizing of the effects of external economic interactions on internal choices.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55612231909720,"sku":"9780862328023","price":102.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780862328023_75b6afe3-f948-4025-887a-ba9941812be0.jpg?v=1778676376","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/delinking-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
