Immanuel Wallerstein  

Definition

  • Immanuel Wallerstein is an American sociologist who was born in 1930. His important contribution to the subject of economics, and by extension poverty, is his world-systems analysis, which defines the world as an integrated, unequal system in which the core extracts wealth from the periphery. [Source: The SAGE Encyclopedia of World Poverty; Wallerstein, Immanuel]
