The « New'imperialism » : Accumulation by
Dispossession.
It is possible to distinguish throughout the long history of capitalism at
a world scale two principal forms of capital accumulation : that based on
expanded reproduction, the extraction of surplus-value by means of purely
economic constraint, and that based on forms of extra-economic coercion, on
violence, predation, expropriation, which illustrates the moment of
« primitive accumulation ». This moment, which is characterised as
« accumulation by dispossession » is not simply a passing phase of early
capitalism, but is rather a permanent modality by which it seeks to resolve its
contradictions and to extend its ascendancy over new terrain on a world
scale. The current period, marked by neoliberal hegemony, is precisely one
in which accumulation by dispossession once again has the upper hand over
expanded reproduction, thereby outlining the contours of a « new
imperialism », dominated by US power. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
