    It’s just a restatement of uneven development made in such a way that Americans can pretend they’re fucking third worlders for living in Florida or something. This is genuinely embarrassing

      Incorrect, uneven development is the later liberal version of the idea, but the original theory is older, emerging as an expansion of Kwame Nkrumah’s Neo-Colonialism theory from 1965

      It’s complimentary to most versions of Third Worldism and neo-Colonial theory and in fact forms the bedrock on most developments of those tendencies
