Reflections on “Imperialism in the Financial Capital Era
Latin America; Marxist dependency theory; commentary
Our Mission as a Journal
In early 1973, twelve founders of Latin American Perspectives met to debate a manuscript supportive of a Marxist Maoist position challenging new Latin American thinking around the subject of dependency and underdevelopment.The central argument of the manuscript was not that dependency thinking was a new and important trend but simply a distraction that had influenced progressive scholarship away from Marxist thought.Most of us disagreed, yet we w…

The Cold War and the Transformation of Latin American Studies in the United States
The Cold War assumptions of mainstream Latin American studies in the United States were challenged in the 1960s by a new generation of academics that opened up the field to progressive thinking, including Marxism. West Coast intellectuals played a major role in this transformation. These new Latin Americanists rejected the university-government-foundation nexus in the field and emphasized field research that brought them into close relationships …

Theories Of Comparative Politics
Extensively revised and updated, this classic text revisits the central problem of searching for mainstream and alternative paradigms to guide us in comparative political inquiry.

Participation and the Workplace in Socialist Cuba
In pursuit of a deeper understanding of Cuba and of democratic practice, Linda Fuller embarked on field research a decade ago and now has given us her remarkable results. Her Work and Democracy ijn Socialist Cuba, based on three visits to the island in 1982 and 1983, interviews with workers, reading of primary documents and newspapers, and a survey of the literature, brings together most of the available writing with firsthand understandings in a…
Dependency
The following synthesis attempts to identify the major tendencies in the dependency literature and to introduce the reader to the major works and issues on the subject. Ronald Chilcote is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Riverside
The Political Thought of Amlicar Cabral
Amílcar Cabral, a little-known revolutionary intellectual and head of the major nationalist movement fighting the Portuguese in their territories of Portuguese Guiné and the Cape Verde Islands, has experienced considerable success as leader of an African independence struggle. His political thought has guided the African response to Portuguese rule for more than a decade. It has developed through the successive phases of his career, as a student …
Issues of Theory in Dependency and Marxism
Students of dependency have struggled over the past decade to integrate their ideas with a theory of Marxism. Their work has opened up new questions and areas of investigation and stimulated interest in many issues that run through the thought of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Trotsky. Controversy has arisen around various explanations of dependency which are rooted in the Latin American experience. Fernando Henrique Cardoso (1980), Theotonio dos Santo…
A Question of Dependency
The dependency perspective has become a major thrust, both in bourgeois and Marxist conceptions of development and underdevelopment in Latin America, but the distinctions between the two interpretations have been blurred. No unified theory of dependency yet exists, but a variety of theoretical tendencies tends to cluster in the literature on dependency. The discussion that follows differentiates between the bourgeois and Marxist interpretations b…
Post-Marxism
Since its inception Latin American Perspectives has recognized many Marxisms and a Marxist tradition of many contending theories and strategies. More important, the journal represents the view that no single tendency within Marxism should dominate its pages, and that Marxism is not reducible to the conceptualization of class, relations of production, or mode of production, but that all of these concepts are fundamental in understanding the proble…
Introduction
LAP at 25
In spring 1970, the Latin American Studies Association approved (367 to 174, with 17 abstentions) a resolution recognizing the need for a journal of opinion in which scholars could analyze contemporary issues in Latin from a variety of viewpoints. During October, the LASA Executive Council approached me about editing a journal of issues on Latin America. My prospectus, dated November 3, 1970, called for a modestly funded journal of Latin American…

Globalization or Imperialism
In a general sense, the term is a politically motivated concept of ideological rhetoric centered on the notion of the evolution of a harmonious and integrated world order to mitigate the tension and conflict that historically has disrupted the international political economy. This article examines various meanings of globalization, compares and contrasts three dominant theories that have shaped thinking over the past century, and argues for a ret…
The Crisis of Marxism
This paper evolves from the fundamental problematic on the crisis of Marxism and explores the roots of the crisis through a discussion of how capitalism and socialism have affected the discourse of left intellectuals. Its central thesis suggests that while this crisis evolved with the stagnation of capital, the end of the postwar boom, and the impasse of bureaucratic socialism, it also was rooted in the shifting ideas and practices of intellectua…

Trotsky and Development Theory in Latin America
Elaboration of four concepts in the thought of Trotsky (backwardness, combined and uneven development, permanent revolution, and socialist transition and revolution) that are useful in understanding developmental theory and their relevance to theories of capitalist development, underdevelopment, and dependency, as prominently manifested in Latin America during the last half of the 20th century. Identification of Trotskyist movements and their spl…

Recasting Mainstream Conceptions of Political Development
The plea of Corning and Hines to replace the concept of political development with that of political evolution addresses the conceptual obfuscation engendered by the plethora of definitions that pervade the literature on development. In a cogently argued paper they review the mainstream literature and briefly refer to alternative perspectives now wellentrenched in the mainstream of social science. They recast these perspectives through synthesis …

Toward the Democratic Opening in Latin America
Dictatorship, authoritarianism, corporatism, fascism, and repression characterize much of the past and present history of Latin America. Reinforcing these tendencies has been the hegemony of domestic ruling classes in league with U.S. policymakers and multinational corporations. Over the years the involvement of the United States in Latin American affairs has assumed several forms of intervention: overt, including hundreds of incidents of direct …

Chile's New Iron and Steel Industry
Spain's Iron and Steel
SPAIN'S iron and steel industry, historically hampered by a complicated political system, is today undergoing rapid development and expansion. Although 45-50 per cent of the active population is engaged in agriculture, Spain has believed for many years that the panacea for its economic problems is industrialization based on an expanding iron and steel industry. In many countries such thinking is belied by the slight possibility of their achieving…
An Assessment of Peruvian Problems and Progress
Today, Peru faces three essential problems: 1) the lack of geographical integration; 2) racial diversity and the failure of restratification among the social classes; and finally, 3) the rising tension generated by population growth and shifts. Within the context of these three problems may be evaluated the role of two “designs” for action — first, the Alliance for Progress and, second, the program of Peru's new government, which, while cooperati…

Brazil and Portuguese Africa in Comparative Perspective
There Have Been Few Scholarly Comparisons of Latin America With other areas of the Third World. As a contribution to such comparative study, the University of California Colloquium attempted to examine links between Brazil and Portugal's African territories of Angola, Guinea and the Cape Verdes, and Mozambique. The objectives were to overlap the traditional area boundaries that separate specialists of Latin America and Africa, to focus on common …
