The rise of the semi-core: China, India, and Pakistan in the world-system
"This book underscores the historical evolution of the capitalist world system since the sixteenth century, elucidating the eighteenth-century fall and contemporary rise of China, India, and Pakistan. Emphasizing the importance of both economic and strategic powers for nations, the narrative traces how Western empires established dominance by controlling resources and converting these regions into peripheries, how a semi-core is emerging within the world-system, and how it is impacting the rise of other developing nations."
