哈维的新帝国主义思想

New Imperialistic Thoughts of Harvey

哈维认为,目前以美国为代表的新帝国义一般不采用殖民地直接占有的形式,它利用经济的力量和国际组织的力量,如世界银行或者国际货币基金组织,以比较隐蔽的方式谋取自己的利益,有时候他们采用从被侵略国寻找代理人攫取权益,而不像19世纪时英国和法国采取直接占领的方式来达到目的。这是美国最近采用的新的帝国主义的方式,也是其剥夺性积累的主要特征。

In Harvey＇s viewpoints, new imperialism （represented by the USA） differs from the old imperialism （represented by the UK） in that the USA doesn＇t occupy another country as its colony, except Iraq. The USA utilizes international organizations, such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, to gain profits in a hidden way. Sometimes, the USA will find a pro-American agent in the occupied country to gain profits for the USA, which is quite differ- ent from the UK and France in the 19th century. The new imperialism utilized by the USA is also the dominant feature of denriving accumulation.
