Notes

1 This point is crucial to Cardoso’s critique and Marini’s counter-response. See (Latimer 2022).

2 The overconsumption of human and nature is a theme that has significantly remerged in the work of Arab Marxists, such as Ali Kadri (see 2023).

3 It should be noted that, a little after the release of the reviewed English translation of The Dialectics of Dependency, a lively debate took place among Marxist-inspired organizations in numerous countries regarding the definition of imperialism in the current context. The central point of this debate revolves around the differing considerations of the dialectics between national and international contradictions (World Anti-Imperialist Platform 2023; Central Commitee of Communist Party of Greece 2023).
