Many commentators have said the cultural process of globalization
is really just the Americanization of the globe. The world economic
order has also moved toward America's chosen rules. However, since
September 11th, the Bush administration has produced new foreign
policy guidelines that have openly decided that the world must
accept America as the only legitimate military power as well. Is
this globalization, or is this just empire? In this smart, brief
book, Pieterse systematically confronts many of the most important
issues surrounding these questions, eventually coming down on the
side of empire. However, he posits that this may be a short-term
trend, and not the inevitable trajectory of American policy. It's
not too late to dismantle the empire, before it buckles under its
own weight.
