Ray Kiely

Empire in the Age of Globalisation (eBook, PDF)

US Hegemony and Neo-Liberal Disorder

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the relationship between US hegemony and contemporary globalisation.

Many introductory textbooks on globalisation tend to be simplistic and conservative. This book moves things forward, providing a critical review of the globalisation debate. Kiely reveals the weaknesses of globalisation theory, and argues that we can only approach a proper understanding of the contemporary world order by linking globalisation to debates on capitalism, imperialism, neo-liberalism and universal human rights. He explores US hegemony in the light of these issues, showing how 'liberal internationalism' cannot be separated from capitalism, neo-liberalism and US empire-building.
