Empire As A Way Of Life is the final work of one of American history's most important and controversial thinkers. In the light of the current uneasy climate of world politics, it has become an invaluable document - a unified interpretation of the motivations behind and effects of American meddling on the global stage. Because it is written by an American - and an American firmly placed in the ideological underground, at that - it represents an insider's view of a system gone tragically awry: an honest, brutal and extraordinarily intelligent look at the causes of a malaise that threatens to unseat the stability of a fragile world peace. The authours challenge the racist politics of vigilante groups like the Minutemen and argue for a pro-immigrant and pro-worker agenda that recognises the urgent need for an international solidarity adn cross-border alliances in building a renewed labour movement.
