Global Capitalism and American Empire

Description

The unconcealed imperial face that the United States is now prepared to show to the world above all pertains to the increasing difficulties of managing a truly global informal empire.

How to refashion all the states of the world so that they become at least minimally adequate for the administration of global order is now the central problem for the American state.

‘A lucid and indispensable guide to the history and practice of American Empire.’ -Naomi Klein, author of No Logo
