Abstract

By drawing from Taiwan’s history over the last century, this paper will demonstrate that dependency theory is not an all-encompassing, universally applicable explanation of the relationship between wealthy nations and poorer nations. However, some of its prescriptions may benefit nations in limited forms, tailored to the unique sociological and economic positions that occupy at any particular moment. Thus, as Taiwan’s experience suggests, states may consider borrowing from dependency theory’s prescriptions when their social organization and economic position makes these prescriptions beneficial.
