About this ebook

Diez eminentes académicos de diferentes países hacen una reflexión seria sobre la estructuración de las ciencias sociales y la solución de problemas como: la jerarquía entre pasado y presente, entre universalismo y particularismo, entre enfoques ideográficos y nomotéticos, multiculturalismo, interdisciplinariedad, proliferación confusa de programas universitarios de investigación, escasez de recursos, implicaciones políticas, etc. Con el propósito de extender la discusión a la mayor parte de ámbitos universitarios, así como sensibilizar al Estado y a las instituciones oficiales y privadas para el desarrollo de investigaciones sociales altmente redituables en la vida pública.

About the author

Wallerstein studied at Columbia University, where he received his Ph.D. in 1959. His work has focused primarily on what he calls "world systems theory," which deals with the socioeconomic dynamics of global dependence and interdependence. As Wallerstein sees it, the wealthy nations of the world control and manipulate the destinies of weaker nations and keep them dependent. The world system is an outcome of historic global, political, and ideological forces leading to Western hegemony.
