Imperialism is not history. It is the system still shaping the world you live in.

Understanding Imperialism is a clear guide to how empires form, how they maintain control, and how imperial power continues to shape wars, economies, borders, media, and everyday life in 2026.

This book explains imperialism without jargon or excuses. It shows how modern imperial power operates through military force, economic pressure, corporate influence, cultural dominance, and political manipulation; while claiming to promote freedom or stability. It connects past empires to present realities, helping readers recognize imperialism as it appears in headlines, policy decisions, and daily conversations.

Written for Americans, this book equips readers to:

Understand what imperialism actually is and how it works
Recognize modern imperial strategies in real time
Identify myths used to justify empire and violence
See how imperial systems benefit some while harming many
Take informed, practical steps to resist imperial power

This is a book about responsibility, and survival in a world shaped by empire. In 2026, understanding imperialism is no longer optional. It is essential civic knowledge.
