The Essential Wallerstein

This work draws upon the full range of Wallerstein's social scientific scholarship, from his groundbreaking research on contemporary African politics and social change, to his study of the modern world-system and current essays on the new structures of knowledge emerging from the crisis of the capitalist world-economy. His singular focus on the way in which change in one part of the globe affects the whole is all the more relevant as the world grows increasingly inter-dependent.
