Where We Stand: Monthly Review and the Credit Crisis

"In the "About" section on our webpage we say: Monthly Review has kept a steady viewpoint. That point of view is the heartfelt attempt to frame the issues of the day with one set of interests foremost in mind: those of the great majority of humankind, the propertyless. But of course that audience cannot afford the subscriptions that make it possible for Monthly Review to exist, nor likely the web access that would make it possible to read us online. For those on whose financial support we rely, no doubt their endangered pension funds are now uppermost in their minds, and reasonably so. Yet the contradiction is that they are not those whom, in the last analysis, we seek to address."

John Bellamy Foster's Naked Imperialism: The U.S. Pursuit of Global Dominance was published by Monthly Review Press in May 2006. It consists of essays written between September 2001 and September 2005, addressing the origins of today's undisguised imperialism, led by the United States. In addition to a running commentary on the developments over this period, the book presents a critique of this new phase of imperialism and some of its most common interpretations. MRZine recently talked with MR Editor Foster about the book.
