Imperialism, corporatism, and militarism have laid at the heart of foreign policy. Since its inception, the CIA has served as a catalyst for corporatists to protect their interests particularly in authoritarian and oligarchical regimes Globalization has destroyed cultural identity; has led to unemployment and underemployment; and has disregarded the environment. It has led to record profits of multinationals. Globalization also has dictated the need for a militaristic society to protect corporate interests abroad.

Flanked on the east and west by the world's two largest oceans, the United States has needed little more for its territorial defense. Nonetheless, the U.S. military had early expanded far beyond what was needed to insure security from external threats. Concomitant with the rapid growth of U.S. industry the military forcefully facilitated commercial agreements and resource capture in distant locations during the 1800s.The annexation of Hawaii was achieved through regime change; a plantation owners' coup against the legitimate king. The Spanish-American War (1898) was sold to the American public as a noble effort to rescue the Cuban people from the oppressive rule of Imperialist Spain. The real goals were sugar, tobacco, coffee and the other resources of Cuba, Philippines, Puerto Rico and Guam. American control of Central American fruit plantations and mining operations was maintained by the U.S. Marines. The Panama Canal was built after the U.S. militarily instigated the partition of the new country of Panama from Columbia. The latter would not ratify a canal-zone lease in perpetuity. Similarly, dozens of other early and commercially motivated military operations took place in Asia, Latin America and Oceania.The same types of commercial goals continue today - internationally the Pentagon and paramilitary CIA operate for the purpose of serving the corporatocracy. Business interests rule the realm and direct foreign policy. Propagandistic references to saving "freedom and democracy" through intervention are now trite efforts to mask the less noble objectives of corporate profits. Resources and foreign governments favorable to the unimpeded operation of corporations have been the primary objectives. Wars and clandestine coups have been endlessly directed against socialism - the public ownership of the principal and essential means of production of goods and services. Public ownership - anywhere in the world - is antithetical to big business goals and militarily opposed by the Washington corporatocracy.The long and enduring role of the U.S. military and paramilitary in supporting international corporate operations has withstood the test of time and is not prone to corrective change. It will continue, irresponsibly and recklessly pursued in an armed and nuclear tipped world. Extended over a long enough period of time catastrophic consequences would seem a certainty.

The eight books reprinted in this set played an important role in defining attitudes and expectations about imperialism on the British Left in the twentieth century. They are vital in understanding the transition from the liberal anti-imperialism of the nineteenth century to the more overtly socialist critiques of the twentieth.

During The Cold War Years, Mainstream Commentators Were Quick To Dismiss The Idea That The United States Was An Imperialist Power. Even When U.S. Interventions Led To The Overthrow Of Popular Governments, As In Iran, Guatemala, Or The Congo, Or Wholesale War, As In Vietnam, This Fiction Remained Intact. During The 1990S And Especially Since September 11, 2001, However, It Has Crumbled. Washington Proclaimed The War On Terror And Invaded Afghanistan And Later Iraq Making Its Imperial Ambitions Clear. Today, The Need For A U. S. Empire Is Widely Defended By Mainstream Analysts And Commentators.John Bellamy Foster S Naked Imperialism Examines This Important Transformation In U.S. Global Policy And Ideology, Showing The Political And Economic Roots Of The New Militarism And Its Consequences Both In The Global And Local Context. Foster Shows How U.S.-Led Global Capitalism Is Preparing The Way For A New Age Of Barbarism And Demonstrates The Necessity For Resistance And Solidarity On A Global Scale.

An urgent examination of the world barreling toward a new Cold War. By 1990, the first Cold War was ending. The Berlin Wall had fallen and the Warsaw Pact was crumbling; following Russia’s lead, cries for democracy were being embraced by a young Chinese populace. The post–Cold War years were a time of immense hope and possibility. They heralded an opportunity for creative cooperation among nations, an end to ideological strife, perhaps even the beginning of a stable international order of liberal peace. But the days of optimism are over. As renowned international relations expert Michael Doyle makes hauntingly clear, we now face the devastating specter of a new Cold War, this time orbiting the trilateral axes of Russia, the United States, and China, and exacerbated by new weapons of cyber warfare and more insidious forms of propaganda. Such a conflict at this phase in our global history would have catastrophic repercussions, Doyle argues, stymieing global collaboration efforts that are key to reversing climate change, preventing the next pandemic, and securing nuclear nonproliferation. The recent, devastating invasion of Ukraine is both an example and an augur of the costs that lay in wait. However, there is hope. Putin is not Stalin, Xi is not Mao, and no autocrat is a modern Hitler. There is also an unprecedented level of shared global interest in prosperity and protecting the planet from environmental disaster. While it is unlikely that the United States, Russia, and China will ever establish a “warm peace,” there are significant, reasonable compromises between nations that can lead to a détente. While the future remains very much in doubt, the elegant set of accords and non-subversion pacts Doyle proposes in this book may very well save the world.

Globalization and Technocapitalism considers the global reach of a new capitalist era, exploring the nature of 'technocapitalism' as grounded in new forms of accumulation, commodification, and corporate organization. As technological creativity, corporate research, and talent flows become more important than ever, this book explores the manner in which globalization acquires new contextual features that will become central to the macro-social dynamics of the twenty-first century. It thus sheds light on the resultant growth in global inequalities and more intrusive forms of global domination that are grounded in emerging sectors, such as nanotechnology, biotechnology and its diverse fields, such as genomics, synthetic bioengineering, bioinformatics and biopharmacology, and related advances in computing and telecommunications. A rigorous examination of developments in contemporary capitalism as driven by the forces of globalization, Globalization and Technocapitalism will be of interest to scholars working in the fields of social and political theory, international political economy, political philosophy, science and technology studies and globalization.

Deep historical trends suggest the United States could be moving toward a distinctly novel form of fascism, embracing elements of the historical phenomenon as it appeared in such countries as Italy, Germany, Japan, and Spain while departing in significant ways. A twenty-first century fascism would hardly be revolutionary or totalitarian, as it would involve no dramatic break with the past, following a logic of continuity and building on firmaments of entrenched power going back to World War II. This new type of fascist regime would be driven by a tightening confluence of sectoral interests in American society: corporate, state, military, and cultural – interests favoring oligarchy, authoritarianism, the warfare system, and surveillance order within an expanding globalized matrix of power. The dominant historical forces emphasized by such theorists as C. Wright Mills (The Power Elite) and Sheldon Wolin (Democracy, Inc.), an important foundation of this book, have grown stronger and more pervasive across the decades. An integrated power structure has been fueled by new advances in technology, a money-saturated political system, and neoliberal globalism bolstered by the spread of right wing populism that, among other things, has catapulted Donald Trump into the U.S. presidency. In this book, Carl Boggs explores new political and ideological terrain in systematically considering the prospects for a gradual development of fascism in contemporary American society and, by extension, elsewhere across the advanced industrial world. He persuasively argues that modern fascistic trends, arguably most visible in the U.S., demonstrate a closer affinity with Mussolini’s Italy (corporate state) than with the more extreme Nazi German model of tyranny and genocide. A very timely scholarly enterprise, this book will be of interest to students of contemporary radical politics, fascism more broadly, US political history, ideologies and party politics.
