What's the aim of contemporary imperialism as a system of interlocking dependencies among the so-called core states? Whether Lenin's theory was adequate is a different question, but in Lenin's theory, imperialism was a system of exploitation (extraction of surplus value) and domination. There is no comparable basis in Panitch's theory.

Ulhas,

What do you think is the aim of the U.S. invasion and conquest of Iraq ? What is the aim of it's placing its military in so many countries around the world ?
