J. A. Hobson (1858 1940) was an English economist and early
socialist, whose writings on capitalism and industrialism
influenced Lenin and Trotsky, and were highly regarded by John
Maynard Keynes. Imperialism, published in 1902, is considered his
most important work. Employed as a war correspondent by the
Manchester Guardian to report on the Second Boer War, he became
convinced that imperial expansion was driven by the desire to find
new markets and investment opportunities, resulting in capitalistic
exploitation of the colonies. He argued that imperial policies were
a fundamental cause of international conflict, as greed led to
aggression and militarism. While modern critics have seen
weaknesses in his arguments, such as his failure to examine the
development of the British Empire out of early private trading
enterprises, Hobson was a very influential and prolific writer and
social theorist, who helped shape British welfare policy in the
twentieth century.
