World-systems theory, as a category for books, encompasses works that explore the socio-economic and political dynamics of the global system, emphasizing the historical and contemporary relationships between different regions and nations. This genre delves into the interconnectedness of the world, analyzing how core, semi-peripheral, and peripheral countries interact within a capitalist world economy. Books in this category often examine the development and impact of global capitalism, colonialism, and imperialism, and how these forces shape social structures, economic disparities, and power relations on a global scale. The theory provides a framework for understanding the complexities of globalization, the persistence of inequality, and the historical processes that have led to the current world order.
