Abstract or Brief Description

Conflict and instability in the Middle East -- which elements of the US capitalist class thrive on it? Is the US invasion of Iraq an effort to secure cheap, free-flowing oil? Political economist Jonathan Nitzan offers surprising answers, and in the process illuminates the power dynamics underlying current trends in capitalism.
