People vs. Profit: Volume 2: The United States & the World

Description

This volume deals with the reaction of Washington to developments all over the globe. America’s position as the strongest and richest imperialist nation, advancing and protecting the worldwide operations of the multinational giants, is traced and documented. The content provide a review of US foreign policy, the forces that propelled it, over the last half of the 20th Century: the arrogant military mayhem; the role of oil; the disregard for international treaties and for the national integrity of small nations; the influx of US business interests, protected by US troops, all over the world; the manic hostility towards socialist countries.
