Dependency approaches emerged out of Latin America in the 1960s in reaction to modernization theories of development. Dependentistas attributed the difficulties of development in the global South to the legacies of the long history of colonialism as well as contemporary international power relations. This approach suggested that international inequalities were socially structured and that hierarchy is a central feature of the global system of societies
