People around the world are confused and concerned. Is it a sign of
strength or of weakness that the US has suddenly shifted from a
politics of consensus to one of coercion on the world stage? What
was really at stake in the war on Iraq? Was it all about oil and,
if not, what else was involved? What role has a sagging economy
played in pushing the US into foreign adventurism and what
difference does it make that neo-conservatives rather than
neo-liberals are now in power? What exactly is the relationship
between US militarism abroad and domestic politics? These are the
questions taken up in this compelling and original book. Closely
argued but clearly written, 'The New Imperialism' builds a
conceptual framework to expose the underlying forces at work behind
these momentous shifts in US policies and politics. The compulsions
behind the projection of US power on the world as a 'new
imperialism' are here, for the first time, laid bare for all to
see. This new paperback edition contains an Afterword written to
coincide with the result of the 2004 American presidental election.
