{"product_id":"naked-imperialism-john-bellamy-foster-9781583671313","title":"Naked Imperialism: America's Pursuit of Global Hegemony","description":"\u003cp\u003eDuring 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. Today, the need for American empire is openly proclaimed and defended by mainstream analysts and commentators.\u003cbr\u003eJohn Bellamy Foster's \u003cb\u003eNaked Imperialism\u003c\/b\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Bellamy Foster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1583671315\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781583671313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Monthly Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 6.02w x 0.52d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Oregon Book Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 75","brand":"John Bellamy Foster","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939784032511,"sku":"9781583671313","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3ad94774-7f5c-4ef7-9f7f-ddaf321d193b.jpg?v=1681443461","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/naked-imperialism-john-bellamy-foster-9781583671313","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
