Theories of Imperialism

Theories of Imperialism, More here: Explanations of Japan’s Imperialistic Expansion, 1894-1910


The four theories to be reviewed will be
1. Hobson's theory of domestic market underconsumption that leads to capitalists seeking profits overseas
2. Lenin's theory of the monopoly stage of capitalism
3. Schumpeter's theory of inherited warlike tendencies from prior generations
4. Nationalism's focus on politics as the critical factor
