| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (p. 262-276) and index Crimes against peace -- Warfare against civilians -- War crimes by proxy -- Weapons of mass destruction -- A tale of broken treaties -- War-crimes tribunals : imperial justice -- Torture and other atrocities -- Conclusion : empire or survival? -- Postscript : the routinization of mass murder Imperial nations advance their own interests by exploiting other societies. To those on the receiving end this is obvious, while inside the empire, a powerful ideological system of justification tends to hide all but the worst excess. Carl Boggs argues that that the USA began life two centuries ago as a nascent colonialist regime plundering and conquering the Native Tribes. The Indian wars were followed by perpetual militarism and warfare fuelled by a deep sense of national exceptionalism. The Crimes Of Empire examines several trends in this process, and illustrates the new depths plumbed since 9/11. Violation of international agreements, treaties and laws and the use of prohibited weapons, support for death squads and torture are just some of the practices that Boggs highlights as he shows how technical superiority and media control prolong the American nightmare |
