Opis

The last 200 years have seen a massive increase in the size of the world economy and equally massive inequalities of wealth and power between different parts of the world. They have also witnessed the rise to dominance of the capitalist mode of production. Marxists, from Marx himself though to present day thinkers, have argued that these changes are profoundly interconnected. This book offers an account of the arguments for these interconnections, which are usually couched in terms of theories of imperialism.

Recenzje

`Brewer has performed an enormous service ... he writes extremely clearly, even when presenting complex and rigorous economic arguments ... and his work deserves a wide audience not only among students but also in trade union groups, evening classes and the like. It will stand for a long time as the obvious introduction to a very important topic.' - Marxism Today
