Hi all,

 

I've just submitted for proofing "The Face of Imperialism" by Michael
Parenti.

 

It's been read and spell-checked. All headers stripped, page numbers/chapter
titles present, footnotes formatted, fonts adjusted.

160 pages.

 

Description:

The relationship between US economic and military power is not often
considered within mainstream commentary. Similarly the connection between US
military interventions overseas and US domestic problems is rarely
considered in any detail. In this brilliant new book, Michael Parenti
reveals the true face of US imperialism. He documents how it promotes unjust
policies across the globe including expropriation of natural resources,
privatisation, debt burdens and suppression of democratic movements. He then
demonstrates how this feeds into deteriorating living standards in the US
itself, leading to increased poverty, decaying infrastructure and impending
ecological disaster. The Face of Imperialism redefines empire and
imperialism and connects the crisis in the US with its military escapades
across the world.
