 | Marxist Theories of Imperialism: A Critical Survey Subjects: Economics Finance Business & Industry; Politics & International Relations; International Politics; Political Theory; Economics; Political Economy; History of Economic Thought; The last two hundred years have seen a massive increase in the size of the world economy and equally massive inequalities of wealth and power between different parts of the world. They have also witnessed the rise to dominance of the capitalist mode of production. Marxists, from Marx himself through to present day thinkers, have argued that these changes are profoundly interconnected. This book offers a unique account of Marxist theories of Imperialism. It has been fully updated and expanded to cover all the developments since its initial publication and will be essential reading for any student of Marxism. Anthony Brewer is senior lecturer in Economics at the University of Bristol. He is the author of A Guide to Marx's Capital, 1984, and of a number of articles in learned journals. |
