  • Oliver Cromwell Cox (24 August 1901 – 4 September 1974) was a Trinidadian-American sociologist noted for his early Marxian viewpoint on fascism. Cox was born into a middle-class family in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago and emigrated to the United States in 1919. He was a founding father of the world-systems perspective, an important scholar of racism and its relationship to the development and spread of global capitalism, and a member of the Chicago school of sociology In 1929 he developed poliomyelitis (polio), causing both his legs to be permanently crippled and that was when he gave up his plans to study law. He was the son of William Raphael Cox and Virginia Blake Cox. (Source: DBPedia)
