"This work by the distinguished Mexican theorist Adrián Sotelo Valencia explores new dimensions of super-exploitation in a context of the structural crisis of capitalism and imperialism. Steeped in a new generation of radical dependency theory and informed by the legacy of his own mentor, the famous Brazilian Marxist Ruy Mauro Marini, Sotelo rigorously examines prevailing theoretical debates regarding the expansion of super-exploitation in advanced capitalism. Building upon a Marinist framework, he goes beyond Marini to identify new forms of super-exploitation that shape the growing precarity of work. Sotelo demonstrates the inextricable link between reliance upon fictitious capital and the intensification of super-exploitation. Poignant contrasts are drawn between US capitalism and Mexico that reveal the nefarious new forms of imperialist dependency"--
In this latest work by the prolific Mexican theorist Adrián Sotelo Valencia, the COVID-19 pandemic is shown to have merely exacerbated the profound world capitalist crisis rooted in the 1970s structural exhaustion of the third industrial revolution. Sotelo explains how the current 4.0 revolution whose articulating axis is the development and expansion of artificial intelligence, Big Data, algorithms, 3D printing, the Internet of Things, and digital platforms, constitutes a global strategy of capital and the state aimed at delaying the global capitalist crisis. The Digital Revolution heralds a new international division of labour with severe repercussions for labour, especially in dependent countries like Mexico. The foreword by Andrés Piqueras of the Universidad Jaume I de Castellón underlines the urgency to heed this insightful analysis.
Sub-Imperialism Revisitedis a theoretically rigorous study by the brilliant Mexican analyst Adri�n Sotelo Valencia. Sotelo systematically explores the "sub-imperialism" thesis as advanced in the pioneering work of Ruy Mauro Marini.

This book offers the paradigmatic transition from social and labour relations based on job security, comprehensive collective agreements and guaranteed social rights, towards new social relations that find their technical, political and organizational roots in job insecurity and monumental social insecurity.
La pandemia de Covid-19 exacerbó la crisis capitalista mundial derivada, en parte, del agotamiento de los dispositivos de la tercera revolución industrial que se desplegó en la década de los setenta del siglo pasado. La revolución 4.0 en curso, que gravita en torno a la inteligencia artificial, el big data, los algoritmos, la impresión en 3d, el internet de las cosas y las plataformas digitales, entre otras, constituye una estrategia global del capital y del Estado encaminada a reestructurar el sistema y estimular su recuperación. Desde el locus de la teoría de la dependencia, el autor expone la hipótesis relativa a que se está fraguando una nueva división internacional del trabajo desencadenante de intensas metamorfosis y mutaciones en la sociedad global y en el mundo del trabajo.
A theoretically rigorous examination of the claims of dependency theory in a world increasingly dominated by regional superpowers.
Mexican theorist Adrián Sotelo Valencia analyses the 4.0 revolution of artificial intelligence, Big Data, algorithms, and digital platforms as a global strategy of capital and the state aimed at detaining the global capitalist crisis. The new international division of labour being forged offers severe repercussions for labour.
