War And Money - The Imperialism Of The Dollar

The business of imperial conflict: Why capitalism needs war. Maurizio
Lazzarato’s War and Money explores the connections between capitalist
expansion, international economic conflict, and war, via an analysis of the
imperialism of the American dollar. He examines why contemporary left-wing
theorists such as Michel Foucault and Antonio Negri have failed to
recognize war as a fundamental aspect of capitalism. Renewed readings of
Marx, Lenin, and Rosa Luxemburg argue for class struggle against capitalist
war as a fundamental aspect of leftist theory.
