| | Opiate addiction was thus incorrectly explained within the context of contemporary medical theory, research and practice. | | | The source of opiates and the conditions under which they were obtained either through medical prescriptions or criminal networks also entered into the social perceptions of behavior and theoretical conceptualizations. | | | Eventually, the social biases and stigma directed to opiate addicts are expressed in federal, state and local legislation whose main purpose is to control behavior that is misunderstood and feared. |

| | One good example would be that of addiction: the habit of smoking may have begun as a social behavior, but as individuals continue this behavior, their body develops a biological dependency on the nicotine. | | | The functionally autonomous traits that will be discussed later were derived from the Freudian system of instinct theory and the theorizing of William James and his idea of the transitoriness of instincts (Allport, 1937). | | | The terms trait and habit may seem to be initially synonymous, but an important distinction and relationship exist between the two. |

| | Dependency theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Dependency theory became popular in the 1960s and 1970s as a criticism of standard development theory that seemed to be failing due to the continued widespread poverty of large parts of the world. | | | Dependency theory states that the poverty of the countries in the periphery is not because they are not integrated into the world system, or not 'fully' integrated as is often argued by free market economists, but because of how they are integrated into the system. | | | Dependency theory is the body of social science theories by various intellectuals, both from the Third World and the First World, that create a worldview which suggests that the wealthy nations of the world need a peripheral group of poorer states in order to remain wealthy. |

| | OMAR SANCHEZ - The Rise and Fall of the Dependency Movement - EIAL XIV2 |
| | Dependency theory was betrayed by the very formulation of its name, for it is not a theory, properly speaking, but can more accurately be conceived of as an approach to the study of underdevelopment. | | | This had obvious consequences for the reception of the dependency theory by mainstream economists, as the dependency perspective was always in the tradition of political economy and not economics proper. | | | Dependency analysts, these critics contended, had gotten their logic backwards: it was the development strategy of a particular country that determined its need for foreign capital, not the other way around. |

| | Also consistent with dependency theory, raw materials are used by the coast to manufacture added-value or high-tech goods, a portion of which are then sent back to the inland areas and sold at a higher price (Solinger 3). | | | In the case of the coastal areas, the government has taken an active role in developing the coastal areas by channeling foreign and domestic investment into appropriate areas; this interference is based more on a new dependency theory. | | | Chinas political exclusion, then, is another factor that is consistent with new dependency theory. |

| | One of the main current critiques of the theory of dependency and the theory of modernization is that they both continue to base their assumptions and results on the nation-state. | | | A predominant point of the new dependency studies is that while the orthodox dependency position does not accept the relative autonomy of government from the powerful elites, the new authors of this school perceive a margin of movement of national governments in terms of pursuing their own agenda. | | | Based on the aforementioned elements it is clear that the globalization and world-systems theories take a global perspective in determining the unit of analysis, rather than focusing strictly on the nation-state as was the case in the modernization and dependency schools. |

| | The central argument of the dependency theory which was formulated as a critical response to the modernization theory, stressed that the wealth of the metropolis was a result of the poverty of the third world. | | | Because the dependency theory solely underscored the development of underdevelopment in terms of economics, supplementing the state-centric theory was absolutely necessary in order to offer a broader economical, as well as political understanding of the African experience. | | | This dependence theory, alias theory of underdevelopment, regards the development of capitalism in underdeveloped countries as a different process from that which the richer countries had experienced in the nineteenth century. |
