The Impact of Transnational Book Publishing on Knowledge in Less Developed Countries

Prospects (Paris), volume 7, issue 2 (1977), pp. 299-308
"The book market, even in Third World countries, is dominated by transnational publishers. For most readers in these countries, this implies an intellectual dependence on ideas from the industrialized countries. National publishers who want to overcome this intellectual dependence have a hard time breaking through these structures." (GIZ Library Bonn)
