For the sake of legitimacy of the so-called \"liberal international order (LIO)\" that dominates today's international society, isn't it possible that the US, which previously found it difficult to do without some kind of justification, is now being blatantly exposed by the emergence of the candid(?) Trump, who is now revealing the true face of the ultra-empire? The author of this book sees this US as nothing more than a kind of Anglo-Saxon restructuring phenomenon (minimizing losses and ineffective military interventions incurred to maintain the empire while simultaneously delaying its retreat as much as possible).\u003cbr\u003e In other words, Trump's declaration to stop being the world's policeman and live with America First is closer to a strategic retreat (a temporary restructuring due to necessity) of the super-empire than to a trend toward de-imperialism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If we do this, we will immediately face the rebuttal, 'Why is America an empire?' \u003cbr\u003eAs the author should have emphasized from the beginning of the book, talking about 'imperialism' in Korea requires breaking through countless walls of prejudice and ignorance.\u003cbr\u003e For most Koreans, 'empire\/imperialism' is just an old story from a history book or an anachronistic term only used in reference to an abnormal state like North Korea that talks about being an 'American imperialist'.\u003cbr\u003e Because of this, Korea is like Hong Gil-dong, who cannot even afford to be rich, to the super-imperial United States, which took the driver's seat of the Anglo-Saxon Empire through two world wars.\u003cbr\u003e The purpose of this book is to reveal how this \"imperial blindness\"—the inability to even recognize or call an empire an empire—can endanger Korea in the turbulent waves of the international order, and further, to reveal which current it would be wise to ride.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePreview\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e \u003cb\u003eindex\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cdiv\u003ePreface \/ The Traps of the Research Theme of 'Imperialism'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 1: Overturning the International Order\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The power of questions\u003cbr\u003e A ruler who is ruled?\u003cbr\u003e Family or business partners?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 2 Imperialism is Alive\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Flowers and weeds\u003cbr\u003e Insights from The Hunger Games\u003cbr\u003e Empire without colonies\u003cbr\u003e The Empire That Never Sleeps\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 3: The Birth of the Super-Imperial America\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Anglo-Saxon Empire\u003cbr\u003e The empire that rules the empire\u003cbr\u003e Imperial Project, LIO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 4: The Art of Governing the Empire\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Invited Empire\u003cbr\u003e Immortal Psychological Warfare\u003cbr\u003e The heart of the empire\u003cbr\u003e barracks state\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 5: Post-Imperial Era: What is Korea's Path?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Discrepancies between diagnosis and prescription\u003cbr\u003e Imperial Alliance\u003cbr\u003e Peace Strategy\u003cbr\u003e Beyond 'Don Quixote Korea'\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublisher's Review\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eProof of the Empire's Absence? And the Law of Addiction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e People often ask, \"What kind of empire is the United States without colonies?\", but this is a misconception. \u003cbr\u003eThe answer lies in the Dominion, which the British Empire had already realized and practiced in the past, when the United States was a 'muscular younger brother' and Britain was a 'strong older brother'.\u003cbr\u003e The idea of ​​indirect rule, which was acquired at the end of colonialism when it reached its limit, was even reflected in the Japanese Empire's plan for the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere before the end of the war.\u003cbr\u003e The question is, rather, whether Anglo-Saxon imperialism actually existed.\u003cbr\u003e The author answers this question by analyzing how the British Empire, through the World Wars, inevitably extended its dream of an \"eternal empire\" by ceding leadership of the international order to the United States as a compromise, and how it evolved into a super-empire that never existed before. \u003cbr\u003eIn fact, Britain and the United States, having won the war, promised a world without empires through the Atlantic Charter (1941), but even before the war, they had already drawn up a blueprint called the \"Study on War and Peace\" (1939-42) to prepare for an \"imperialism without empires\" order (the very origin of the \"LIO\").\u003cbr\u003e In that extension, the then weak Soviet Union was inflated into a giant, giving birth to the Cold War confrontation, and the Anglo-Saxon Empire continuously 'developed' its main enemies in the form of lawless states, rogue states, and the axis of evil, which led to the constant occurrence of large and small wars on Earth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is not just a claim made by intellectuals with a critical disposition, who are easily dismissed as being like that.\u003cbr\u003e The author also confirms that this is not a bias of some, using case studies and research results from whistleblowers from various backgrounds and fields, including military, bureaucrats, and journalists in Europe and the United States. \u003cbr\u003eWilliam Broome, who worked at the U.S. State Department and witnessed the invasion of Vietnam, which led him to uncover the dark history of the CIA and the truth about the Chilean coup, or Chalmers Jones, an anti-communist who actively supported the Vietnam and Iraq Wars, who visited Okinawa to investigate the gang rape of a 12-year-old girl and raised the issue of the existence of the massive U.S. military base as a new form of imperialism.\u003cbr\u003e But while Chomsky's research and Snowden's revelations are somewhat well-known, why are these voices so rarely heard? Why has Anglo-Saxon imperialism received so little attention? The answer lies in the governance techniques that only a super-empire capable of governing the entire world can achieve. \u003cbr\u003eThe surveillance empire's system makes it difficult to properly recognize its true nature, such as by building a coalition of forces through information and military alliances like the Okus and Five Eyes, and by inducing voluntary cooperation through media and psychological warfare with its vast knowledge and information power.\u003cbr\u003e This is also the reason why the author had to use the abductive method (a social science research methodology that verifies the validity of a proposition using a tailored hypothesis) to prove this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eA New Cold War or Post-Imperialism: What Are Our Choices?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In fact, the biggest victims of the era of imperialism without empires are the former colonial countries.\u003cbr\u003e The world may have changed, but the unjust relationship of dependence between the colonial mother country and the newly independent nation remains essentially unchanged. \u003cbr\u003eIn this way, the essence of imperialism continues in a different form, but the fact that the LIO, which is so familiar that it appears natural, rational, and justifiable, has been obscuring or encouraging this unjust reality is gradually gaining acceptance in the international community.\u003cbr\u003e The movement to transform the US-centered unipolar system, which has been supported by the LIO, into a multipolar system, has gained momentum from countries in the Global South, including the BRICS countries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The reality of ideology cannot help but change depending on one's perspective.\u003cbr\u003e Depending on whether one views the essence of today's international society from the perspective of a \"new Cold War\" centered around the US-China conflict or from the perspective of \"post-imperialism\"—the confrontation between a super-imperial camp and those seeking to break it—the United States appears either as an \"indispensable superpower\" or as a \"unilateral empire.\" \u003cbr\u003eIt goes without saying that our future will be greatly influenced by which instrument panel we adjust the rudder of the Korean ship.\u003cbr\u003e Moreover, in the tug-of-war between the two camps, Korea is being pulled by both sides.\u003cbr\u003e The author began writing this book out of a sense of crisis that while the international community was moving forward with the zeitgeist of post-imperialism, Korea was on the wrong path, falling into an imperial alliance and becoming a bodyguard for the Anglo-Saxon empire. He put the basis for this diagnosis into this book. (Therefore, he also published a book titled “The Naked Korea-US Alliance,” arguing that insisting on the Korea-US alliance alone would be like the foolishness of Don Quixote rushing into windmills.) This book reaffirms that we must wake up to our senses in order to avoid repeating the failures of the late Joseon Dynasty, when we were blind to the international situation. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 7, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e- \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 324 pages | 398g | 140*210*20mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9788957695012\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 895769501X \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894398746666,"sku":"140820","price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/7c49bd7db7df9020c12c4465f9de60db.jpg?v=1765432563","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/140820","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
