Duh, forgot to mention two Right-Wing critiques, fwtaw. Probably will provoke a reaction similiar to when a housemate of mine, ripped the cover off of, "Pyramids of Sacrifice, " by Peter Berger.

http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog/PACDEP.html THE DEPENDENCY MOVEMENT Scholarship and Politics in Development Studies ROBERT PACKENHAM

In the first comprehensive scholarly treatment of dependency theory, Robert Packenham describes its origins, substantive claims, and methods. He analyzes the movement comparatively and sociologically as a significant episode in inter-American and North-South cultural relations. In his account, the positive intellectual contributions of dependency ideas, as well as their role in the costly politicization of U.S. scholarship, become evident and comprehensible.

Robert A. Packenham is Professor of Political Science at Stanford University and the author of Liberal America and the Third World.
