Sumario: | "Andre Gunder Frank has achieved the status of being a persona of controversy." This means that his writings are widely discussed, passionately debated and hastily read. He first attained this notoriety in a polemical essay originally published in 1967 in an early "New Left" scholarly journal called Catalyst. It was a slashing, some thought devastating, attack on the then prevailing (and up-to-then scarcely contested) 'conventional wisdom' on economic development ... "Frank remains one of the most productive, stimulating and incisive analysts of the global process of accumulation and hence of 'development' and 'underdevelopment.' And his recent books show that he is a reflective scholar who continues to struggle with his material. He warrants careful, not sloppy, reading." |
