Abstract

KATZ, Claudio. Downtown and periphery in the post-war Marxism. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.2, pp.623-642. ISSN 1657-8031.

Important studies of the downtown-periphery relationship were developed by four Marxist economists in the postwar. While Paul Baran and Paul Sweezy were precursors to this approach, Samir Amín and Ernest Mandel provided more elaborate developments of the same subject. All of them investigated in a post-war reconstruction and a capitalist expansion period, which widened the gap between the advanced and the lagged economies. What was your vision of this asymmetry?.

Keywords : Underdevelopment; Marxism; Post-war.
