Confronting both the conservative and depen- dency orthodoxies, the central theme is that of ag radual maturing of capitalism, in which a capitalist class (indigenous, Chinese and foreign) grows in strength and influence in both the economic and political arenas. This process is set in the context of a changing international economy and the studies bring to bear the latest theoretical perspectives on class, state and power.
