ILLUSION IN CRISIS?
WORLD-ECONOMIC
AND ZONAL VOLATILITY,
1975–2013
Daniel S. Pasciuti and Corey R. Payne
Introduction
Throughout much of the twentieth century, nations engaged in a race for development that achieved massive social change but differences between nations
did not equalize. Inequality between nations remained relatively constant, yet,
during this period, the validity of the developmental project was rarely questioned. Despite the failure of nations to “catch up,” the belief in the possibility
persisted, creating what Arrighi (1990) termed the “developmentalist illusion.”
For Arrighi, the “developmentalist illusion” is the idea that catching up
to the wealth levels of the core is possible for any and all states in the worldeconomy—when, in reality, they are running in place. By running in place,

states engage in a development project without a corresponding increase in relative positioning vis-à-vis wealthier states. This means that national development
is often accompanied by industrialization, urbanization, and increases in human
development—health, education, and general material conditions. These massive social changes create a perception of “catching up” to the conditions of the
“first world” (core), yet their relative material gains are always slower than those
of the wealthiest nations. The wealthiest nations remain one step ahead as they
too continue to advance, materially and economically. The “illusion of development” is perpetuated, because—despite all of this—the nation-states still
exist in the same relative position of exploitation. Because the ability to achieve
long-term development for all, or even most, nation-states is impossible under
a global economic system based on exploitation and exclusion (the “adding up”
problem), the developmental idea is a logical fallacy—an illusion.
This “adding up” problem in the capitalist world-economy is based on
the notion that all states do not face the same conditions for advancement in a
system where the “relational processes of exploitation and relational processes
of exclusion” (Arrighi 1990: 16) are continuously reproduced in new ways.
This is a complementary duology of exploitation and exclusion, where core
states use their position in the world wealth hierarchy to exploit semiperipheral and peripheral states in the world division of labor through a process of
unequal allocation of resources and unequal reward for human effort (Wallerstein 1988; Arrighi 1990).
We provide an alternative lens to empirically examine the relative
movement of world income differences over the past 40 years and offer an
alternative understanding of the present political and social crises of the past
decade by focusing on the volatility of relational income inequality. By sorting
nation-states into their respective zones of the world-economy—via a method
developed by Arrighi and Drangel (1986)—we track the movement within
and between these zones across our temporal scope.
After demonstrating that the movement between the zones is negligible,1
we then calculate a volatility measure in each given year to determine the level
of movement within each zone and the entire world-economy. We find distinct
periods of high volatility concentrated in the semiperiphery and periphery (in
the 1980s and 1990s respectively) and low volatility globally in the 2000s. We
argue that these trends have striking implications for our understanding of the
world-economy and the current period of social and political chaos.
Measuring Differences in National Income
The main dataset used in this research is the Gross National Income Per Capita (GNIPC) measure, using the foreign exchange Atlas method, provided by
15031-1093d-1pass-r02.indd 51

the World Bank. We utilized GNIPC in order to measure the total income
“accrued” by residents, including incomes transferred from abroad, rather
than GDP, which measure incomes “produced” by residents. The World
Bank’s data does not cover all countries for all years from 1975 to 2013. Since
data was needed in every year in order for our ranking and analysis, data was
interpolated and extrapolated using several methods which are described in
depth in Appendix A.2 Only 14 countries’ data required alteration. In total,
5.3% of the data points were added, with 5% being the former USSR and
0.3% being other nations. After removing all countries with data points that
could not be added with our methods, we were able to create a set of 126
countries with complete data throughout the period.
Data from the World Bank allows us to measure absolute differences
between countries. We can understand income as a proxy for power and command over these resources (Bonini 2015). However, our analysis focuses on
the positioning of nation-states in relation to one another. This presents us
with a situation where absolute differences in wealth (or income over the longrun) do not matter. The amount of per capita income separating the rich,
middle, and poor clusters in the hierarchy do not concern us so much as the
fact that there is a difference between the rich, middle, and poor clusters. We
again build from Arrighi (1990: 15), that
capitalism [is] an evolutionary system in which the stability of the whole
is premised on the perennial change in and of the parts. . . . The kinds of
inputs, outputs, and techniques of production and distribution and the
positions in networks of trade and resource allocation that endow states
with differential capabilities to appropriate the benefits of the world division of labor are assumed to change continually as a consequence of the
introduction and diffusion of political, economic, and social innovations.
While the specific “inputs, outputs, and techniques of production” change,
grow, and evolve, the position of these parts remains relatively constant.
Because of this, we are concerned solely with the position of a country as
a part in the system—the position of a country in the world wealth hierarchy. This position is only important vis-à-vis the position of other countries
and, through this lens, the absolute changes have limited value. Therefore, we
use this relative positioning of countries (vis-à-vis other countries) as a tool to
understand the organization of and movement within the wealth hierarchy
over the past four decades.
This approach utilizes the concept of rankings to complement, rather
than supplant, previous research on hierarchy in the world-economy. By
providing information about the terminal endpoint of the distribution of
national economies, rankings provide an alternative lens to the relative differences in world-economic stratification in its relationship to a finite number
15031-1093d-1pass-r02.indd 52

53
of possibilities. In this way information about national economic well-being
can be interpreted as a relative measure vis-à-vis the entire distribution of
world-economy. In essence, the upper bound of rankings is limited by the
number of countries employed in the rankings and not the theoretically
infinite valuation of absolute income.
Clustering in Zones
Following Arrighi and Drangel’s method for delineating the boundaries of the
zones of the world-economy, we determine boundaries for the core, semiperiphery, and periphery as follows: For each selected year, data was arranged by
GNIPC from the smallest to the largest value. In order to collapse the interval between countries, as well as remove a significant right-skew, the GNIPC
values were transformed using a log of base 10. This not only improves the
interpretability of information, but also allows for a better visual presentation
and inspection of the data distribution. The logged values were then truncated
to an interval of one-tenth in order to consolidate the number of independent
variables for plotting.
For each country, the share of the world’s population was then calculated.
This population was divided by the aggregate to calculate a percentage share of
the world population that each country holds. Next, the population shares of
countries with the same truncated log value were aggregated. A three-interval
moving average was then taken in order to smooth the erratic spikes and dips
in the distribution caused by populous states. This method was repeated for
each year in order to classify boundaries of the core-semiperiphery-periphery
hierarchy.
These zonal distinctions are theorized to represent relative measurements, where the greater the level of income, at market-based exchange rates,
the greater the marginal rewards of labor to citizens of a state. This reflects
both the world division of labor in economic activities and the highly skewed
share of benefits in that division.
For our analysis, we utilized the 1992 distribution of logged Gross
National Income (GNI) per capita. We use this particular year to identify
zonal boundaries due to previous research which identifies 1992 as the global
distribution most similar to a trimodal distribution (Pasciuti and Silver 2015).
The distribution of ranks was then classified into core, semiperiphery, and
periphery based on these zonal boundaries. Since the goal of classifying these
countries into a zone is not to permanently position them there, but rather
to show relative movement over time, the selection of a single distribution
does not affect the outcome so long as the boundaries are kept constant; in
addition, multiple iterations of our processes show that changing the base year
does not alter our findings.

Arrighi and Drangel used the local minima between the modes as
boundaries, and when there was more than one local minimum, they deemed
all countries that fell between the minima to belong to a “perimeter of the
core” and a “perimeter of the periphery” (Arrighi and Drangel 1986: 64).
Because we are interested in the temporal changes in the hierarchical location
of states, we decided to split the perimeter between the core and the semiperiphery. As such, those countries with a logged GNIPC value of 3.8 went
to the semiperiphery and those with a 4.0 went to the core. We decided that
those countries in the 3.9 block would be labeled semiperipheral.3 Therefore,
these zonal boundaries were established: the periphery includes all countries
with log GNIPC values from 2.2 to 2.9; the semiperiphery from 3.0 to 3.9;
and the core from 4.0 to 4.7.
Country Movement Within and Between Zones
To understand relative movement within these zones, we ranked the countries
from 1 to 126 (where 1 is given to the country with the highest GNI per capita and 126 is given to the lowest). The zones were then delineated based on
the method described above with the following result using the actual rankings in 1992: the core consists of those countries with the ranks of 1 to 28,
the semiperiphery 29 to 76, and the periphery 77 to 126. We maintain these
boundaries as temporally constant throughout.

By ranking, we show each country’s relative position in the wealth
hierarchy over time. Changes in position in the hierarchy are representative
of changes in ability to reap rewards from the world distribution of labor.
Country ranks are graphed from 1975 to 2013. Figure 6.2 below shows the
rank movement of the countries in the semiperiphery. The second graph
(Figure 6.3) depicts only the countries that permanently entered or exited
the semiperiphery over this time period. The black dotted lines represent the
boundaries of the zone; all countries are classified based on their 1992 zonal
positions.4
Figure 6.2 clearly illustrates that, within the semiperiphery, countries
are moving consistently throughout the period; an image of almost consistent
chaos. Yet, in Figure 6.3, we isolate only the exceptional cases (countries that
entered or left a zone and remained there for at least five years). Here, only ten
countries that were in the semiperiphery in 1992 entered or left the zone over
the entire time period, making real zonal change a rare event. For example,
Thailand and Hungary (marked as lines A and C respectively), enter the semiperiphery and remain in the zone for the rest of the period. Alternatively, El
Salvador (marked as line B) enters the zone in 1992, remains for a while, but
falls back into the periphery by the end of our period.
Thus, the data suggest that there is a significant amount of movement
within zones, where countries are changing relative position in the worldeconomy every year. But these changes are, generally speaking, small intervals.
Throughout our time period, the average movement per country per year

was 1.69 ranks. Despite this constant movement, from 1975 to 2013, only
21 countries (or 16.67%) permanently transitioned between zones. Change
was more prominent in the periphery, where approximately 20% of countries
transitioned, while approximately 14% transitioned in the core or periphery.5
Table 6.1 highlights one of the central features of our analysis: the
stunning lack of trans-zonal movement. While there is constant shifting of
countries’ rank over time, the overall lack of trans-zonal movement shows
the fallacy of the “catching up” development paradigm. As stated previously,
with this constant “running-in-place,” in conjunction with the developmental
project of material and social improvement, nations have an illusion of development. Their movement vis-à-vis others in their respective zones creates the
perception of hierarchical change while only minor back-and-forth shifts are
the reality. Given this, the failure to develop and the illusion of development
are not two separate realities but rather parts of the same whole—the central feature of the world-economic hierarchy. We have shown empirically the
failure to develop (Table 6.1).6 We now seek to show the persistence of the
15031-1093d-1pass-r02.indd 56

57
logical fallacy, the “illusion of development,” through an empirical measure of
volatility in the world wealth hierarchy.
Assessing Zonal Volatility
Illustrating the illusion of development requires moving beyond an analysis
of individual, national rank movements, and requires understanding volatility
of both the zones of the world-system and the world-economy as a whole.
Technically, volatility is the fluctuation of countries’ rank movements within
each zone of the world-economy. Conceptually, aggregating these fluctuations
allows us to measure volatility as the magnitude of rank movement within the
world wealth hierarchy, relative to other countries. We have therefore created
measures of cumulative fluctuation in the world-economy as a whole—what
we have termed “world-economic volatility”—and in its constitutive zones—
what we have termed “zonal volatility.” Since our central theoretical premise is that relative positioning in the hierarchy of wealth indicates the ability
to extract unequal rewards and unequal opportunities, taken together, these
measures compile a more complete picture of the world-economy and allow
us to identify and analyze change and stability in the world-system.
By calculating the aggregate expected movement within the worldeconomy per year and then placing it as a ratio of actual movement per year,
we are able to create a timeline of percent movement deviated from expected
movement over the course of the analyzed period. The formula was a simple
ratio calculation:
Actual Movement − Expected Movement
Expected Movement
Actual Movement is the sum of the absolute value of rank change for every
country for every year. Expected Movement is global average movement per
country per year. The resulting percentage is the percent deviation from average movement for the world-economy in each given year. The values were
then smoothed by taking a three-period moving average to allow for better
interpretation. Figure 6.4 shows zonal volatility, the percent deviation from
the global average movement per country per year by each in the three zones.
What is resoundingly clear from this measure is that the core has significantly less than average volatility throughout the period. While this is no
doubt interesting, it is unsurprising; we expect volatility in the zones where
“catching up” is an active goal—or rather, where the illusion of development
is preeminent. Yet even in these zones, what is most striking is not the level
of relative economic volatility present in much of the period, but the lack of
relative movement over the past 10 years. We will explore the historical significance of these points, beginning with the late 1970s.

Generally speaking, the semiperiphery indicated high volatility from
1976 through the early 1990s, with a brief aberration in the mid-1980s. We
interpret this volatility primarily through the lens of the massive debt crisis
and subsequent IMF response. This period, especially in Latin America, is
known as the “Lost Development Decade” because of the significant socioeconomic declines states experienced—not only in absolute terms, but also
vis-à-vis other states. Two examples which manifest this dynamic clearly are
Chile and Mexico. In the postwar period (1950s through 1970s), through
massive government spending and policies of import substituting industrialization (ISI), the two countries experienced exceptional growth (Hirschman
1968). In 1981, our analysis shows both countries declining in relative position to other countries, consistent with the debt crisis. By 1982, Latin America as a whole was holding debt at 50% of their collective GDP and at more
than 300% of their collective exports (Bértola and Ocampo 2012). In 1982,
Mexico defaulted on its debt payments, and others followed suit. By 1985, 38
countries were forced to reschedule their debt payments globally, of which 16
were Latin American countries (Sachs and Williamson 1986). These trends
are clearly illustrated in our data as the “newly industrializing nations” steadily
lose ground relative to other nations. We generally point to this process of
system crisis, debt, and decline throughout the semiperiphery to explain the
overall high level of volatility captured during this period and ultimately
the “running-in-place” that left many countries in the same relative position
at the end of the 1980s as they had started in the 1970s, even as their absolute
level of income changed.

Conversely, newly industrializing counties in East Asia did not follow
the same rise and decline pattern of their Latin American counterparts. Most
notably, the East Asian Tigers (South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, and Hong
Kong) which had been rapidly growing since the 1960s, due to an interesting
mix of neoliberal policies and state intervention in markets. It is important to
note it here to show that many factors, not solely zonal collapse due to a debt
crisis, led to the high volatility during the 1980s.
For example, South Korea experienced significant growth from the
1960s onward, which many attribute to the implementation of liberal exportoriented industrialization (EOI) (Castells 1991). In our analysis, South Korea
steadily rose in the ranking of the world wealth hierarchy, crossing the entire
semiperipheral zone between 1978 and 1992 before flattening out along our
zonal boundary from 1992 onwards.
In the 1990s, the semiperiphery remains volatile but the level of volatility declines. Instead, it is the periphery that emerges as the most volatile area
of the world-economy through the massive growth of other Asian nations,
especially India and China. But in addition to the rise of China and India (and
others in Asia, such as Indonesia and Sri Lanka), we also see decrease (and
then, sometimes, recovery) of the countries in Central Asia, such as Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkmenistan. This is due to the collapse of the Soviet
sphere, after which all of Central Asia experienced a dismal period of economic decline until approximately 1997 (ADBI 2014).
Understanding hierarchical change in the world-system during the late
twentieth century, without discussing the rise of China and India, would be
highly problematic. Undoubtedly, their rise has caused more ink to be spilled

on the subject of development than anything else in the past two decades. The
trends presented in our data follow the predominant narrative that China and
India rose relative to other nation-states throughout the 1990s and, at least
in the case of China, continued to rise through our most recent data (Arrighi
2007, 2009; Hung 2009; Korzeniewicz and Moran 2009). The emergence of
these states, along with a general overall rise of the rest of East Asia, plays a
critical role in the volatility of the periphery in the 1990s.
And while the data—both our zonal volatility measure and our country rankings—match our general historical understanding for the 1980s and
1990s, the data from approximately 2000 to 2013 is more complicated. As
demonstrated in Figure 6.8, both the semiperiphery and the periphery decline
to generally hover around average movement during the last decade of our
analysis. This is slightly counter to the general understanding of the period—
that the 2000s was characterized by the rise of China (and the rest of the
BRICS) in a challenge to Western (core) dominance within the world wealth
hierarchy.
But, taking a look at the rank positions of the BRICS throughout the
entire period presents a different picture. With the exception of China (and
slightly Brazil), the BRICS begin to level off in their relative rise through the
hierarchy following the turn of the century. China is the only “major mover”
left vis-à-vis other nations. And, further, given the decline of both the semiperipheral and peripheral zones’ volatility during this decade, it appears to be
one of the few “major movers” of the period at all.
This presents an anomaly in the understanding of the contemporary
period of the world-system—the crisis of US hegemony. During a period of

increasing challenges to US dominance, this lack of volatility in the worldsystem appears to imply a stabilizing world order. We are thus left with a
seemingly contradictory dynamic, where the country and zonal data conflicts
with our a priori understanding of the political and social chaos now engulfing
the world-system.

World-Economic Volatility: A Perspective on Crisis?
Therefore, we return to our global measure of world-economic volatility
to understand if the individual and zonal trends are indicative of a worldsystemic change. This cumulative measure of the rank movement of all
nations, regardless of zonal positioning takes the entire world-economy as a
singular unit of analysis across time. This measure, presented in Figure 6.9,
matches the trends of zonal volatility presented above.
Here we can clearly decipher three striking features. The first two features are “waves” of volatility from the 1970s to the mid-1980s and from the
late-1980s to the mid-1990s. We have already established that the two early
waves did not fundamentally alter the world wealth hierarchy, constituting
the “running-in-place” phenomenon. As we have shown in Figure 6.4, the
first wave was concentrated in the semiperiphery while the second was concentrated in the periphery—and, as we show in Table 6.1 and Figures 6.2
and 6.3, neither wave accomplished fundamental hierarchical restructuring or
trans-zonal movement.
The third feature is not a “wave” but is the stunning decrease of volatility from the mid-1990s to the present. This is not surprising, as we have previously established that both semiperipheral and peripheral volatility declined
to below average around the turn of the century. Further, individual countries,
such as the BRICS, which were thought to have been rising in the wealth

hierarchy during this period, in reality failed to significantly move vis-à-vis
other countries.
So what does this mean for our understanding of the world wealth hierarchy? Primarily, it leads to a return to our initial foundation—that, despite
significant absolute changes in wealth and income since the turn of the twentieth century, the position of nation-states vis-à-vis other nation-states has
remained mostly static. This is occurring despite the continued rise of China.
This reality reinforces our understanding of the developmentalist illusion:
while some countries (e.g., China) are able to continue to rise and “develop,”
the hierarchy—the economic organization of the world-system—remains stable overall.
The striking feature then, is not that the global picture matches the
constituent parts, but that the lack of global volatility is unprecedented in
the past five decades. Taken in a broader temporal scope, the overall historical
dynamics, presented above, draw a fascinating picture of change and present
a new lens through which to assess the contemporary crises: of the ability to
develop, of the illusion of development, and of the world-system as a whole.
Here we return to our theoretical starting points, the failure to develop
and the illusion of development. As outlined by Arrighi (1990), we have
based our assumptions of the perpetuation of a world wealth hierarchy on the
premise that the world-economy is characterized by the provision of unequal
rewards and unequal opportunities to nations. Relative position in the world
wealth hierarchy correlates with greater benefits and opportunities for nations
to attain higher incomes and remain ahead of others in the distribution of
wealth. Moreover, the idea, inherent in various versions of modernization theory, that catching up to the development of the core is possible for any and all
states and that movement within world-economic zones represents the ability
to develop, generates a logical fallacy, an illusion of development. Therefore,
we reiterate our thesis that the failure to develop and the illusion of development are parts of the same whole—the central feature of the world-economic
hierarchy.
We claim that this central feature corresponds with the perpetuation
of a stable hegemonic system. Although there was movement within the
wealth hierarchy, the overall distribution and structure of the world-economy
remained constant despite volatility. This is clear in our data from the 1970s
through the 1990s, where trans-zonal mobility was absent (the failure to
develop) and volatility was present (the illusion of development). When these
conditions were present in the latter half of the twentieth century, US hegemony was perpetuated.
However, from the late 1990s through the present, volatility has substantially declined while trans-zonal movement is still absent. We theorize that
the failure to develop without the illusion of development characterizes the
contemporary form of hegemonic crisis and fundamentally distinguishes it

Daniel S. Pasciuti and Corey R. Payne
from the earlier period. The lack of volatility, since the early 1990s, breaks the
illusion of development and undermines the global institutional conditions
created for the perpetuation of US hegemony. This does not equate with a
fundamental change in the position of wealth held by core nations, the economic dominance and exploitation of the world-system, but rather signifies
the social, political, and ideological crisis of US hegemony, where US leadership is being challenged.
In this way, we may understand the current global dissonance and the
blatant challenging by BRICS and other nations, such as the creation of a
new development bank, or multilateral institutions in the realm of international trade and military intervention, as manifestations of the crisis of
global institutional conditions. Wealthier nations still use their position in
the world-economy to economically exploit and exclude weaker nations, but
without these conditions—without the illusion of development—the economic organization of the world-system has been laid bare for what it truly is:
crass exploitation.
This conclusion fits with our understanding of hegemonic transitions.
Silver and Arrighi (2011: 59) argued that “[i]n the past, declining powers lost
their ability to maintain the necessary global institutional conditions before
rising powers had the capacity or inclination to take over the role of leader.”
If we understand the contemporary period of world history as the period of
declining US power, the decrease in volatility can be understood as the quandary of the US organized world-system. As the illusion of development has
collapsed and the global institutional conditions supporting US hegemony
have deteriorated, the current state of the world-system is personified by
financial, geopolitical, and social chaos.
Notes
1. This analysis builds from Arrighi and Drangel (1986), who also found negligible transzonal movement for the early period of our analysis, and developed “mobility tables” to understand the “running in place” phenomenon in the semiperiphery (Arrighi and Drangel 1986:
Appendix III).

overall results are not different.
