ABSTRACT

The aim of this concluding chapter is to unmask globalization as imperialism and to point out the limits of the antiglobalization movement. As I see it, this movement is fundamentally flawed in ways that will limit its capacity to bring about fundamental change. For one thing, movement activists fail to recognize that the issue is not globalization in one form or another; it is imperialism-the projection of state power under conditions of a renewed form of US-led imperialism. Until this problem is grasped and dealt with in thought and practice the forces of resistance cannot be fully mobilized in the struggle for social change.
