They led debates on race and inequality from the 1920s and 1930s and spearheaded local, regional, and internationalist efforts to re-envision modernity by the 1950s and 1960s. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy examining the limitations and legacies of socialist development initiatives in and across the Third World, \u003ci\u003eSocialism, Internationalism, and Development in the Third World\u003c\/i\u003e offers new perspectives on the intertwined histories of socialism, development, and international cooperation, with lessons for both past and present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
