This book elaborates an alternative ontology and way of
thinking about global development during the last two
centuries - one linked, not to nations and regions, but
to a set of essentially trans-national relations and
connections. It argues that capitalist development has,
everywhere and from the start, involved-not whole nations
or societies-but only sectors or geographical areas
within states. It clarifies the specific conditions and
circumstances that enabled European economies to pursue a
more broad-based development following World War II, and
what prevented a similar outcome in the contemporary
-third world-.
