In Empire Versus Democracy, Carl Boggs traces the authoritarian trajectory of American politics since World War II, with emphasis on the growing concentration of corporate and military power that has accompanied the United States assumption of leading superpower on the world scene. The rise of the U.S. as unchallenged imperial nation has meant the steady expansion of a permanent war economy and security state that, working in tandem with large business interests, has led to proliferation of American armed-forces bases around the world, recurrent military interventions, swollen government bureaucracy, massive public expenditures, heavy reliance on surveillance and secrecy, and diminished resources for social infrastructure and social programs. Boggs shows that, as in the case of the Roman and other previous empires, enlargement of U.S. imperial power has resulted in a decline of civic engagement and local participation along with skewed priorities favoring the war economy and security state. Inevitably, this has meant a weakening of electoral and legislative politics, overwhelmed by the centers of enormous wealth and power. The goal of this new, unique Series is to offer readable, teachable "thinking frames" on today’s social problems and social issues by leading scholars, all in short 60 page or shorter formats, and available for view on http://routledge.customgateway.com/routledge-social-issues.html For instructors teaching a wide range of courses in the social sciences, the Routledge Social Issues Collection now offers the best of both worlds: originally written short texts that provide "overviews" to important social issues as well as teachable excerpts from larger works previously published by Routledge and other presses.

Excerpt from Democracy and Empire: With Studies of Their Psychological, Economic, and Moral Foundations This book is the product of a nearly continuous interest which, for more than ten years, I have felt in the problems of "Democracy" and of "Empire." My studies of theoretical sociology long ago led me to believe that the combination of small states into larger political aggregates must continue until all the semi-civilized, barbarian, and savage communities of the world are brought under the protection of the larger civilized nations. I became convinced also that the future of civilization will depend largely, and perhaps chiefly, upon the predominant influence of either the English-speaking people of the world or of the Russian! I Empire, according as one or the other of these two gigantic i powers wins the advantage in the international struggle for I existence. At the same time, I remained convinced that; the democratic tendencies of the nineteenth century are not likely to be checked or thwarted in our own or in future I generations. Every phase of this democratic movement has strongly interested me; and I have found myself viewing it from the standpoints of industry, of politics, and of education. I could not cease my study of these problems until I had tried to see them in their mutually qualifying relations, to see how the different modes of democracy sometimes limit and sometimes strengthen one another, and to understand how it is that democracy and empire, paradoxical as such a relationship seems, are really only correlative aspects of the evolution of mankind.

In their international bestseller Empire, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri presented a grand unified vision of a world in which the old forms of imperialism are no longer effective. But what of Empire in an age of “American empire”? Has fear become our permanent condition and democracy an impossible dream? Such pessimism is profoundly mistaken, the authors argue. Empire, by interconnecting more areas of life, is actually creating the possibility for a new kind of democracy, allowing different groups to form a multitude, with the power to forge a democratic alternative to the present world order.Exhilarating in its optimism and depth of insight, Multitude consolidates Hardt and Negri’s stature as two of the most important political philosophers at work in the world today.

This book is expressive of the motivations and sentiments of a "dreamer" who hopes to frame the proper issues for a national debate on how to attain for the Filipinos what John Adams told Thomas Jefferson, a "revolution in the minds" of the people and, perhaps, other peoples similarly situated. It also seeks to tease Big Uncle, in the light of the 9/11 tragedy, into considering the difficult task of dealing humbly, fairly and respectfully with the rest of the world and letting others go or be as best as they can be; and then before completing to remake the world in his image, subjecting himself first to the ordeal of the mirror test to see if his self-apotheosis as the epitome of democracy and liberty has not been so contrived in Orwellian guise.
