IN recent years the systems approach to Latin America's political economy has emerged largely within the categories of dependency theory. Central to this theory is the assumption that international relationships are directed by commonly recognized, pervasive, and one-way patterns of subservience and exploitation. The interaction of independent and dependent nations creates an international system in which political and economic relationships determine the internal social and political organization of dependent countries. Theot6nio dos Santos, one of the earliest proponents of this approach, broadly conceived of dependence as a situation in which Latin American countries had their economies, and, by extension, their sociopolitical lives, shaped and dominated by the development and expansion of the economies of industrialized western powers. In his view, dominant nations possessed technological, commercial, and capital-resource predominance over dependent nations that resulted in de facto colonization or informal empire. 1 According to dependency theorists, the deleterious influence of unequal economic relationships between subordinate and dominant countries brings political ramifications on the local, i.e., national, level. Often an intimate association develops between foreign capitalists and local oligarchies. Consequently, capital resources tend to be allocated for political reasons in such a way that an economic structure of underdevelopment is set up, in which Latin American states are exploited by foreign interests whose concern lies mainly with profit remittances and the export of primary products. Empirically, the focus of dependency theory has been broadly global or international, while the sheer scope of the data admits to a wide variety of interpretations. Little has been done on a local specification of theory
