This book is a major new account of the nature of empires, covering the history of empires from Ancient Rome to the present day.
Looks in detail at the question of whether the United States today should be considered as an empire – and, if so, how it differs from earlier empires like the Roman Empire and the British Empire.
This work also discusses the critical debates surrounding Empire by scholars such as Negri, Mann and Ignatieff.
This book will appeal to scholars, students and interested general readers working and thinking in the very topical field of Imperialism.
