Article Citation - WoS: 1The Theory of Uneven and Combined Development and the Sociopolitical Transformations in Syria and Libya(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Yalvac, Faruk; Menguaslan, HikmetThis article explores the constitutive impact of the 'international' on the sociopolitical transformations in Syria and Libya through the lens of the theory of Uneven and Combined Development (UCD). The conventional and numerous critical analyses of Syrian and Libyan sociopolitical change suffer from a Eurocentric and stagist understanding of development. This paper argues that development problems can be better conceptualized with an interactive framework made possible by the UCD theory. In this context, we focus on how the expansion and consolidation of capitalism through the dynamics of UCD have concretely shaped the process of sociopolitical transformation in Syria and Libya to shed light on how the international and the local have articulated to produce the socioeconomic and political outcomes in these two states. We conclude by arguing that the theory of UCD provides an alternative conceptualization in explaining the specific development trajectories in both countries.Article Alternative Consensuses on Development and the Role of the State in Large Emerging Economies: the Case of China and India(CAIRN Belgique, 2019) Sönmez,S.The purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of the Washington Consensus on development experiences in China and India. In spite of the differences between the development policies in each country, the market-driven reforms and the economic role of the state in these economies could offer an opportunity to search for a denominator among the development models. © 2019 CAIRN Belgique.
