If there is a connection it's pretty superficial. International economics relations are an important part of Trotsky. Not in the case of Gerschenkron who was almost exclusively focused on the domestic economy & concrete nuts and bolts of industrial development.

There is a subtle argument in Gerschenkron that the industrial revolution in the UK creates an international change in that states can experience themselves as "backward." That is where his essay on Marxism Leninism comes in.

There are many passages in Friedrich List (1841) which sound an awful lot like "advantages of backwardness", "combined and uneven development", and "core-periphery relations".

The most forgotten figure in intellectual history imo.

Actually, I'm sure Gerschenkron did too.

Maybe the historical legacy of Marxism is Bernsteinian revisionism in W.Eur birthplace & where it has actually succeeded as catch-up strategy, it’s because it has created/strengthened Weberian elements (instrumental materialism + bureaucratic impartiality) in those societies ;).

Also, List, Bernstein, Weber are intellectual history B-siders, who deserve to be A-siders in terms of actual historical impact.

Pretty sure List has been standard reading (alongside Smith and Marx) for undergrad intro IPE courses in US for a long time, just FYI
