A succinct analysis of the process of super-exploitation in the present-day context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Drawing upon methodological insights from Hungarian Marxist István Mészáros, Brazilian Marxist Ruy Mauro Marini, and others, Adrián Sotelo Valencia demonstrates the pivotal importance of analyzing second order mediations as he builds an innovative, expanded model of structural dependency. The result is a more holistic, dialectical grasp of the contradictory dynamics of contemporary imperialism where Capital globally deploys technology for automation in an unsustainable drive for profit that displaces labor and increasingly threatens the reproduction of the global labor force. Empirical evidence presented throughout this work serves to reinforce its powerful, updated articulation of Marxist Dependency Theory.
Adrián Sotelo Valencia is Professor and researcher at the Center for Latin American Studies of the Faculty of Political and Social Sciences at the UNAM in Mexico City. He has authored numerous works on labor, capitalist crisis, and development, including Global Labour in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Brill, 2023), United States in a World in Crisis (Brill, 2020), Sub-Imperialism Revisited (Brill, 2017) and The Future of Work (Brill, 2015).
