Historia Magna, 2025

The Global South's Struggle: Economic Independence in the 20th Century by Oliver Shaw delves into the complex economic history of the Global South during the 20th century, chronicling the efforts of nations in Africa, Latin America, Asia, and beyond to break free from the shackles of colonialism and imperialism. Focusing on the intertwined issues of economic dependency, debt, and sovereignty, the book explores how countries from the Global South navigated the turbulent waters of global capitalism, struggled against economic exploitation, and sought paths to self-sufficiency. Through a deep analysis of key events such as the debt crises of the 1980s, the rise of neoliberal policies, and the influence of multilateral institutions, Shaw provides a comprehensive view of the struggles and successes of these nations as they sought economic independence. Drawing on historical events, political shifts, and economic theories, this book offers a detailed examination of how the Global South's economic landscape was shaped by both external pressures and internal movements for change. The narrative is a powerful exploration of resilience, activism, and the ongoing fight for equity in a globalized world.
