Other streams of thought, primarily the German and French Enlightenment, were equally important to him.

His framework posits that the world is divided into a core, semi-periphery, and periphery, where economic and political inequalities perpetuate a global capitalist system. Theda Skocpol, a prominent sociologist and political scientist, offers a nuanced critique of Wallerstein's theory by examining its theoretical foundations and historical applicability. Skocpol’s critique emphasizes both the strengths and limitations of Wallerstein's framework, contributing to a more refined understanding of global capitalism and its historical development. Skocpol’s critique of Wallerstein’s World-Systems Theory is both a recognition of its contributions and a call for a more integrated approach. She appreciates Wallerstein’s insights into global capitalism but argues for incorporating a broader understanding of domestic political structures, state capacities, and historical contingencies. By integrating these elements, scholars can develop a more comprehensive view of how global and local factors interact to shape economic and social outcomes.

In English, originally this is a term used in geometry; meaning "crossroads, a place of crossing." •Intersection, thus, refers to a point where two or more entities crosscut one another.
•There are multiple categories (factors, attributes and processes) at work for the development of social identity of any group of people (or an individual).

•Intersection is something more than just overlaps and overlays. Intersectionality, hence, is an active and dynamic social process of forming personhood.
• Social identities are mutable - they are not fixed, they are not unchanged. The durability and permanency of social identities that people perceive as temporary.
