Samenvatting

Exploring the intersection of Marxism and development, this book looks at Marx’s original conception of capitalist development and his later engagement with under-developed Russia.

“This book undertakes its analysis with historical depth and finesse, wide engagement and crystal clear language. A formidable work that offers many fresh insights.”

Jan Nederveen Pieterse, University of California Santa Barbara, USA

“Ronaldo Munck’s critical reassessment of Marxist thought has timely relevance. His ultimate methodological goal is especially significant for its incorporation of non-European thought.”

Philip McMichael, Cornell University, USA

“Written with exceptional clarity and sophistication, this book will be of interest to experts and students alike.”

Nandini Gooptu, Oxford University, UK

Development and underdevelopment are the main determinants of life chances worldwide, arguably more so than social class. Marxism, as the underlying theory for social revolution, needs to have a clear understanding of the dynamics of development and social progress. Exploring the intersection of Marxism and development, this book looks at Marx’s original conception of capitalist development and his later engagement with under-developed Russia. The author also reviews Lenin’s early critique of the Russian populists' rejection of capitalism compared with his later analysis of imperialism as a brake on development in the non-European world. The book then considers Rosa Luxemburg, who arguably provides a bridge between these theorists and those that follow with her analysis of imperialism as a necessity for capitalism to incorporate non-capitalist lands. Turning then to the non-European world, the author examines the Latin American dependency theories, the post-development school and the recent indigenous development theories advanced by Andean Marxism. Finally, Munck addresses the relationship between globalization and development. Does this relationship suggest that it has not been capitalism but a lack of capitalism that has led to under-development?


Ronaldo Munck is Professor of Sociology and Director of the Centre for Engaged Research at Dublin City University and holds visiting posts in Argentina, Ecuador, Canada and Germany.
