About the Book

The unconcealed imperial face that the United States is now prepared to show to the world above all pertains to the increasing difficulties of managing a truly global informal empire. How to refashion all the states of the world so that they become at least minimally adequate for the administration of global order is now the central problem for the American state. ‘A lucid and indispensable guide to the history and practice of American Empire.’ -Naomi Klein, author of No Logo

Leo Panitch
Leo Victor Panitch, (born May 3, 1945, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) is a Distinguished Research Professor of Political Science and Canada Research Chair in Comparative Political Economy at York University. Since 1985, he has served as co-editor of the Socialist Register, which describes itself as "an annual survey of movements and ideas from the standpoint of the independent new left". Panitch himself sees the Register as playing a major role in developing Marxism's conceptual framework for advancing a democratic, co-operative and egalitarian, socialist alternative to capitalist competition, exploitation and insecurity.
