Opis

This volume reiterates the continued relevance of imperialism, as a continuous arrangement from the early years of empire-colonies of nineteenth century to contemporary capitalism. It examines the prevailing pattern of expropriation across the globe, rooted in neoliberalism, globalization and free market ideology. Providing a historical as well as a conceptual account of imperialism in its ‘classical’ context, the book brings to the fore an underlying unity which runs across the diverse pattern of imperialist order over time. Dealing with theory, the past and the contemporary, the study ends by delving into the current conjuncture in countries including Latin America, USA and Asia.
