Twelve previously unpublished essays discuss particular cases and issues of theory from the world-system perspective. The effect of changes in Europe on l8th century coffee production; how the Mexican revolution helped the country fit a new international role; the agrarian crisis that helped precipitate the fall of the Shah; and the ways in which dependence leads to the creation of strong national regimes are among the topics discussed in order to show the interdependence of the world system.
