The Imperial Web and
the War on Terrorism: U.S. Military Bases and Empire.
The attacks of September 11,2001 and the subsequent global War on Terrorism directed by
the United States have made it clear that the world is now dominated by an American Empire,
which extends far beyond the British Empire of old. The extent of U.S. imperial ambitions is
perhaps best understoood in terms of the history of its military bases, which are now located in
around 60 countries. These bases are not to be understood as a purely military phenomenon but as
part of a larger system of economic, political and military power rooted in the hegemonic position
of U.S. capitalism in the world economy as a whole. [Article adapted from the March 2002 issue
