Exposing the inner-workings of the neoliberal capitalist-imperialist system led by the United States, this book goes into great lengths to highlight the underlying contradictions and conflicts that characterize the fundamental crises of global capitalism in the early 21st century and makes a major contribution to our understanding of imperialism today, while serving as a guide to emerging movements that will take the lead in the struggle to transform the global imperialist system. Berch Berberoglu, Professor of Sociology and Director, Ozmen Institute for Global Studies, University of Nevada, Reno, USA; Author of Globalization of Capital and the Nation State: Imperialism, Class Struggle, and the State in the Age of Global Capitalism. Professor Gurcan's work is an extraordinary accomplishment in the field of imperialism theory. It will be indispensable for future scholarship. It unravels the interconnections between imperialism and neoliberalism, representing neoliberalism as a US-led approach to the management of imperialism, one that has failed humanity. With impressive global range, Gurcan analyzes imperialism as a multi-faceted phenomenon that interconnects economic, political and cultural domains. Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Professor Emeritus of Bowling Green State University (Department of Journalism and Public Relations) and California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, USA (Department of Communication); Author of Media Imperialism and Editor of Media Imperialism: Continuity and Change. This book offers an excellent analysis of key topics in the contemporary global political economy: neoliberalism, financialisation, globalisation and imperialism. They are examined expertly from the theoretical as well as the historical angle, in the light of case studies and specific experiences. This is an essential work for all those interested in the vectors of international power in today's world.
