Finance as warfare

Click here to access article by the editor (Edward Fullbrook) of Real-World Economic Review Blog.

In this article the author introduces us to a book by Michael Hudson entitled Finance as Warfare published by RWER. However, what is left out in this introduction is the fact that in this era of globalization, capitalists totally disregard borders (unlike the rest of us). That means that their own populations (mostly in the US and Britain) are put into debt and controlled by debt as well as foreign nations and their populations. So it's global class warfare not imperialism as is implied in the introduction; and I suspect according to my reading of Hudson's articles, that it is likewise treated in his book.
