       modern world-system as a capitalist world-economy : 
       production, surplus-value, and polarization -- The rise of
       the states-system : sovereign nation-states, colonies, and

520    In World-Systems Analysis, Immanuel Wallerstein provides a
       concise and accessible introduction to the comprehensive 
       approach that he pioneered thirty years ago to 
       understanding the history and development of the modern 
       world. Since Wallerstein first developed world-systems 
       analysis, it has become a widely utilized methodology 
       within the historical social sciences and a common point 
       of reference in discussions of globalization. Now, for the
       first time in one volume, Wallerstein offers a succinct 
       summary of world-systems analysis and a clear outline of 
       the modern world-system, describing the structures of 
       knowledge upon which it is based, its mechanisms, and its 
       future. Wallerstein explains the defining characteristics 
       of world-systems analysis: its emphasis on world-systems 
       rather than nation-states, on the need to consider 
       historical processes as they unfold over long periods of 
       time, and on combining within a single analytical 
       framework bodies of knowledge usually viewed as distinct 
       from one another -- such as history, political science, 
       economics, and sociology. He describes the world-system as
       a social reality comprised of interconnected nations, 
       firms, households, classes, and identity groups of all 
       kinds. He identifies and highlights the significance of 
       the key moments in the evolution of the modern world-
       system: the development of a capitalist world-economy in 
       the sixteenth-century, the beginning of two centuries of 
       liberal centrism in the French Revolution of 1789, and the
       undermining of that centrism in the global revolts of 
       1968. Intended for general readers, students, and 
       experienced practitioners alike, this book presents a 
       complete overview of world-systems analysis by its 
       original architect.
