The following should work with RequireJS 2.1.0+ assuming you've set up the paths correctly.

require.config({
  shim: {
    'underscore': {
      exports: '_'
    },
    'backbone': {
      deps: ['underscore','jquery'],
      exports: 'Backbone'
    },
    'backbone-tastypie': {
      deps: ['backbone']
    }
  }
);
