Description
"Empire and imperialism have returned with a vengeance - not as a set of ideas and practices to be exhumed by the historians, but as paradigms for 21st-century living. Harry Harootunian turns his gaze to signs of the new imperialism in the world - from the United States' occupation of Iraq to supposed terrorist enclaves around the globe." "The arguments being made today for imperialism's historical and contemporary value echo earlier rationales for modernization theory and its conception of "development" during the heyday of the Cold War. Harootunian cuts through the layers to reveal that under the new clothes, it's the same empire."--Jacket.
