Wallerstein in his book "The Modern World System" in 1974. He argues that the modern world system emerged in Europe 500 years ago, and that it is based on the capitalist trading system, transcending national boundaries and becoming a "capitalist world economy". In order to accumulate capital, capitalist producers are increasingly competing for labour, raw materials, and markets, and divide the different regions of the world into poor and rich. |
