In Part I the book delves into the complex relationship that exists between imperialism and capitalism as the system that dominates the world economy. Part II elaborates on the economic and political dynamics of imperial power in Latin America and the forces of resistance that these dynamics have generated. Part III focuses on the relationship between the United States and Venezuela, which has assumed the leadership in the anti-imperialist struggle. 410 0$aStudies in critical social sciences ;$vVolume 83. 410 0$aStudies in critical social sciences.$pCritical global studies ;$vVolume 6. 606 $aImperialism 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zLatin America 607 $aLatin America$xForeign relations$zUnited States 615 0$aImperialism. 676 $a327.7308 700 $aPetras$b James F.$f1937-$0267474 702 $aVeltmeyer$b Henry 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824328403321 996 $aPower and Resistance$93999607 997 $aUNINA
