Abstract
For much of the past half-century, the economic story of the global south has been written in a narrow register: extract, export, import, repeat. Raw materials leave. Finished goods return. Value accumulates elsewhere. But history, when read carefully, tells a different story. Nations do not rise because they possess resources. They rise because they transform knowledge into industry, and industry into power.
