A limitation of Wallerstein's Theory is that

it locks many countries into a stage where it is difficult to advance from the periphery to the core
it does not allow for periphery countries to join supranational organizations
it is based on the dependency theory
it is a model that attempts to explain global economic interactions
the model only takes into account the economic concerns of semi-periphery countries

Keep in mind your previous question- the lesson you shared and even the answer to the prior question

What answer choices have you eliminated so far? Remember, we're discussing the LIMITATIONS of Wallerstein's theory

What is a supranational organization?
Look up the dependency theory

Seafoam · Answer

Would it be the model only takes into account the economic concerns of semi-periphery countries?

AZ · Answer

How does it take into account the economic concerns?

That answer choice didn't really make much sense to me. It takes into consideration the economies of all three types of countries and that's how you determined that the Core are consumers, semi-periphery are extractors, and periphery are producers according to the theory

I guess its also not it is based on the dependency theory?

AZ · Answer

so what is the dependency theory?

Seafoam · Answer

Is it when the products from the peripheral countries get to the core?

AZ · Answer

yeah `Dependency theory is the notion that resources flow from a "periphery" of poor and underdeveloped states to a "core" of wealthy states, enriching the latter at the expense of the former.` https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_theory
