Devine, James: Ulhas:>>And what is Imperialism in the first place?
> "Imperialism," as Marxists use that term, refers to a social system of >international domination, of most countries by others. (Unlike in >other perspectives, it is not simply a policy, a decision by government >officials.) Originally applied to the ancient Romans, Egyptians, etc., >one hundred years ago several Marxists (Lenin, Luxemburg, Bukharin, >etc.) applied the term to capitalism, likening it to the empires of old. I am not sure Marxists have a coherent theory of contemporary Imperialism. Is Lenin's theory of imperialism relevant today? Ulhas
