its a topic i nominally understand but is honestly high fantasy to me whenever i try to understand it deeper and i think i need to read like a whole thing specifically dedicated to the concept to really for once wrap my head around it. ive seen a lot of debate on things like wages, super-exploitation, and currency differences that id really like to be able to settle in my head. thank you!
Michael Hudson’s Super-Imperialism, plus his blog and the podcast Geopolitical Economy Report.
I liked Zak Cope’s book ‘Divided World, Divided Class’ it was much more comprehensible to me. He writes in a more colloquial way than Amin. It’s a great book if you’re not doing intensive study.
There is also Imperialism in the Twenty First Century by John Smith that is great but it is not easy to read.
It’s so funny to me that all the big leftist theorists have exotic names and then there’s Mr. Default Name himself
