By the 1970s the global hegemony established by an American Empire in the post-World War II period faced increasing resistance abroad and contradictions at home. Contextualizing that hegemony, resistance and contradictions is the focus of Dying Empire. Presenting a wide-ranging synthesis of approaches, the book attempts to shed light on the construction of and challenges to the military, economic, and cultural imperial projects of the United States in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Opposing US imperialism and global domination, Francis Shor combines academic and activist perspectives to analyze the crises endemic to empire and to propose a vision for the realization of another more socially just world. The text incorporates the most recent critical discussions of US imperialism and globalization from above and below to illuminate the practices and possibilities for global resistance. Offering insights into the political and cultural convulsions of recent decades whilst raising profound and compelling questions, this book will be of interest to activists, students, and scholars of American political culture, US foreign policy, globalization, imperialism, international relations, and social movements.

The Dying Empire plunges the reader straight into the Battle of Königgrätz. The decisive victory of the Prussian Army over the Austrians ushered in the final era of the illustrious Habsburg dynasty. 1867 saw the Habsburg's centre of power divided between Vienna and Budapest as, in a dramatic political shift, the Austrian Empire became the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, under the rule of the charismatic and iron-willed Franz Joseph I. Tells the story of an arrangement that existed for only 51 years: born of a battle in 1867 it was finally destroyed by war in 1918. Yet this half-century was the most creative, most open and innovative phase of six-hundred years of imperial Habsburg rule. Spans a period of slow faltering decline towards extinction, and equally a time of hectic vitality. As political and military power ebbed away, cultural power became an end in itself. Covers the years that gave us many of the names that shaped the last century: Freud, Schiele, Klimt, Kafka, Wittgenstein. The Austro-Hungarian Monarchy has presented a unique problem in European history -- each new successor state has made a great effort to start afresh, to build its own national history, art and culture, and to deny their defunct collective heritage. Andrew Wheatcroft strips the histories back to their origins in the Habsburg dynasty and tells a revelatory story of power, wealth, scandal and passion.

A dramatic retelling of the final years of the Western Roman Empire and the downfall of Rome itself from the perspective of the Roman general Stilicho and Alaric, king of the Visigoths. It took little more than a single generation for the centuries-old Roman Empire to fall. In those critical decades, while Christians and pagans, legions and barbarians, generals and politicians squabbled over dwindling scraps of power, two men – former comrades on the battlefield – rose to prominence on opposite sides of the great game of empire. Roman general Flavius Stilicho, the man behind the Roman throne, dedicated himself to restoring imperial glory, only to find himself struggling for his life against political foes. Alaric, King of the Goths, desired to be a friend of Rome, was betrayed by it, and given no choice but to become its enemy. Battling each other to a standstill, these two warriors ultimately overcame their differences in order to save the empire from enemies on all sides. And when one of them fell, the other took such vengeance as had never been seen in history. Don Hollway, author of The Last Viking, combines ancient chroniclers' accounts of Stilicho and Alaric into an unforgettable history of betrayal, politics, intrigue and war for the heart and soul of the Roman Empire.
