OverviewIn the wake of colonial and racial exploitation, political leaders, technocrats, activists, and workers across the Third World turned to socialism to offer a new vision of post-colonial development. Against a backdrop of decolonization, white supremacy, and the Cold War, they fostered anti-colonial solidarity and created cooperative frameworks for self-reliance. In following these actors, the contributions to this volume show that “development” was not merely exported from North to South: people across the Global South collaborated with each other while engaging with a diversity of socialist ideas, from European Fabianism and Marxism to tailored African, Asian, and Latin American models. 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. By examining the limitations and legacies of socialist development initiatives in and across the Third World, Socialism, Internationalism, and Development in the Third World offers new perspectives on the intertwined histories of socialism, development, and international cooperation, with lessons for both past and present.

It definitively grounds the history of development in the global south and irreversibly links it to stories of socialism, internationalism and regionalism that will change scholars' and students' understanding of the 20th century. * Alden Young, Associate Professor of History and Global Affairs, Yale University, USA * Sun Lin Lewis and Nana Osei-Opare have brought together a great team of scholars to explore the entanglements of socialism and development in Asia, Africa, and Latin America from the early 1900s to the 1980s. The volume looks at actors from the Third World who constructed and reconstructed socialist conceptions of development autonomously from the socialist world and from leftists in Europe and North America. The book’s remarkable geographical and intellectual breadth should be an example for all historians interested in socialism and development. * Alessandro Iandolo, Lecturer in Soviet and Post-Soviet History, UCL, UK * Lewis and Osei-Opare's new edited volume is a field-changing book that shifts our view of the global history of development.
