Expanding on the works of other political and economic theorists, including Karl Marx, Lenin provided an answer: capitalism. As he saw it, WWI was solely about imperialism and colonialism. To maintain their unyielding drive for maximum profit, the major capitalist industries of rich nations-banks and manufacturing-had to seek riches outside of their countrys borders. By sending money (capital), instead of goods, to poorer, less developed nations, they could exert their power and control new markets. But what happens when rival empires clash over these colonized lands? Warfare. In Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism, Lenin extends his scorn to the international socialist movement which -- with the exception of the Russian faction-supported entering the war to fight against a perceived foreign enemy while ignoring domestic marauders. He also exposes the cynicism behind the Wilson doctrine, which posited the world could achieve peace through the continued exploitation of the poor by the rich. Lenin connects the ruling classs increased wealth with the corruption, through bribes, of politicians and the labor leaders who worked to suppress workers strikes. Now a century in print, Lenins influential analysis remains highly relevant in comprehending the historical context of the foreign and domestic policy in the United States and other major nations.To deepen your understanding of Imperialism the Highest Stage of Capitalism, you may also wish to read Lenins pivotal work on political theory, State and Revolution.
