section Summary
 
 
Latin American history is the story of on-and-off again exploitation; from being a colonial possession to a neo-colonial inferior. There have been very few periods in time that the continent has been able to develop without interference. By examining the origins and events that have occurred during Latin America’s history we see what 1970’s and 80’s intellectuals label the economic dependency theory at work, however upon critically analyzing the dependency theory we see certain flaws in both its content and solution to ending Latin American dependency.
