It is a substantially revised version of its three predecessors, The Gap Between Rich and Poor (1984) and the first two editions (1993 and 1998) of the present book. As the book is organized, any one part could be assigned to students as a self-contained unit. The order in which the parts are present ed here, however, does create a logical path that students can easily fol low. Parts 1 and 2 provide the basic facts of the Part 3 deals with the dynamics question: Is the gap widening or narrowing? Part 4 presents culture-based explanations for the gap. Part 5 covers dependency and world-system theories, with much empirical evidence and case study data supporting both sides of the debate. Part 6 covers the role of the state in stimulating or inhibiting growth and inequality. And in Part 7, we offer some conclusions and directions for future research.
