Title: IMPERIALISM AND RESISTANCE
Description: "Since the end of the Cold War, the United States has emerged as the hegemonic superpower with enormous military might and a strong but faltering economy. This unparalleled supremacy has been accompanied by an aggressive interventionist foreign policy which has been condemned by many as imperialist. Imperialism and Resistance offers a radical critique of this new imperialism of the US and its allies, including Britain." "The author explains how the US imperial turn has been underpinned by a number of significant factors such as US military spending, American economic power and the politics of oil. He also shows the terrible consequences of these policies in terms of deepening global inequality and injustice. In the final sections of the book, the author explicitly addresses the thorny question of how best to resist the new imperialism, drawing upon his own experience as an activist in the anti-globalisation and anti-war movements."--BOOK JACKET.
