General considerations on some interpretations of dependency theory & a prospective analysis of major trends in the economic development of the Third World. Two points are stressed: (1) the material condition of most Third World inhabitants is unlikely to be improved by the emerging new international DofL, although it is possible that in some countries this may lead to a process of dependent industrialization; & (2) the current crisis in industrialized countries is mainly attributable to the worldwide reorganization of industrial production, a process that is based both on industrial rationalization & relocation. 63 References.

Summary Michael Lipton replies that Susantha Goonatilake's paper is itself a victim of the 'dependency syndrome' it attacks. Developing countries need to protect themselves against unsuitable transfers of technology, but must not fall into a narrow, nation‐based ideology. He distinguishes five separate forms of dominance and challenges the assertion that Sri Lanka's reference group has been narrowly based. The best way to avoid 'cultural encapsulation' is to develop high professional standards, which need not be 'Western', liberal, capitalist or monodisci‐plinary.RESUME Commentaire sur la thése de GoonatilakeMichael Lipton répond à l'article de Susantha Goonatilake en le qualifiant de victime de ce même 'syndrome du développement' auquel il s'est attaqué. Les pays en voie de développement doivent se protéger contre les transferts de technologie inadaptée, mais ne doivent pas retomber dans une idéologie etroite basée sur leur seule nation. Il distingue entre cinq formes distinctes de facteurs dominants, et il s'oppose à la proposition selon laquelle le groupe de référence utilisé à Sri Lanka aurait une base trop étroite. La meilleur façon de résistor à 'l'encapsulation culturelle' est de viser des normes professionnelles élevées qui n'ont besoin d'être ni occidentales, ni libérates, ni capitalistes, ni unidisciplinaires.RESUMEN Comentario sobre GoonatilakeMichael Lipton responde que el artículo de Susantha Goonatilake es en si mismo vlctima del 'lndrome de la dependencia' contra el cual se dirige.

Lipton distingue cinco formas diferentes de dominación objeta la efirmación de que el grupo de referencia de Sri Lanka tiene una base estrecha. La mejor manera de evitar el 'encapsulamiento cultural' es desarrollar altos patrones profesionales, que no tienen por qué ser 'occidentales', liberales, capitalistas o monodisciplinarios.

Each year, the United States spends 65,000 per poor family to "fight poverty" - in a country in which the average family income is just under 50,000. Meanwhile, most of that money goes to middle-class and upper-middle-class families, and the current U.S. poverty rate is higher than it was before the government began spending trillions of dollars on anti-poverty programs.In this eye-opening Broadside, Kevin D. Williamson uncovers the hidden politics of the welfare state and documents the historical evidence that proves Lyndon B. Johnson's "Great Society" was designed to do one thing: maximize t
