This book revisits the debate over the new international division of
labour (NIDL) that dominated discussions in international political
economy and development studies until the early 1990s. It submits
that a revised NIDL thesis can shed light on the specificities of
capitalist development in various parts of the world today. Taken
together, the contributions amount to a novel value-theoretical
approach to understanding the NIDL. This rests upon the distinction
between the global economic content that determines the constitution
and dynamics of the NIDL and the evolving national political forms
that mediate its development. More specifically, the authors argue
that uneven development is an expression of the underlying essential
unity of the production of relative surplus-value on a world scale.
They substantiate and illustrate this argument through several
international case studies, including Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador,
Ireland, South Korea, Spain and Venezuela.
