| | Antonio Guiteras: Revolution and anti-imperialism in his thought (2005) |
 | | Targeted by the right and the lack of understanding of the left, Guiteras began his anti-imperialist actions, with radical benefits for the workers, as he himself explained: “I have the satisfaction of having taken to President Grau, for his signature, decrees that attacked Yankee imperialism the hardest…”[13] | | | However, later he confirmed that: “A brief review of the political-economic situation in Cuba, led us to the conclusion that a movement that was not anti-imperialist in Cuba was not a revolution. | | | You either served Yankee imperialism or you served the people because their interests were incompatible”. |

| | American Imperialism and Anti-Imperialism a Century Ago |
| | A number of middle-class anti-imperialists actually shared racialist theories of Anglo-Saxon superiority that imperialists espoused: they "opposed acquisition of an empire because colonial intermarriages and immigration would compromise American racial purity" (Slotkin, 121). | | | There is a current campaign demanding that the bells be returned to the Philippines-as a reminder to the people of the atrocities carried out by U.S. imperialism and the heroism of those who dared to resist. | | | As defender of "intense American Nationalism" (Bowers, 499), Beveridge stands as the principal senator of distinction and eloquence who consistently championed the ethos of imperial aggrandizement in its primal period, crafting its imaginary. |

| | But the ultimate cause, beyond such immediate factors as the opposition of the workers movements to imperialism and the aid of the USSR to anti-imperialist movements, was the development of the world economy. | | | Imperialism as the age of war and revolution, provided the justification for and strategy of the new communist international. | | | At a recent Open Polemic conference I criticised a contribution on imperialism for being a collection of outdated platitudes, and marveled that not only did our ruling class live in the dream world of a now lost empire, but that these fantasies seemed to be shared by Marxists as well. |

| | Key to the complicity of most of the white working class, and most significantly its organized fraction, with U.S. racism and imperialism was a combination of two essential factors: white racial privilege and the social bloc that it created, and the promise of improving living standards. | | | Its rise in the United States must be understood in terms of the crisis to the white racial bloc, which has unfolded at the same time that neoliberal globalization has arisen. | | | Again, according to the United Nations, in 2002 the world’s 225 richest individuals, of whom sixty are from the United States, have a combined wealth of over $1 trillion, equal to the annual income of the poorest 47 percent of the world’s population. |

| | Opposition to US imperialism has grown to such proportions since the start of the Iraq war that Noam Chomsky now describes world public opinion as "the second super-power." However, we are actually witnessing something much more exciting than the term "public opinion" suggests: the beginnings of an international anti-imperialist movement. | | | The New Imperialism by David Harvey (New York: Oxford University Press, 2003). | | | After long detours through the history of imperialism, capitalism, and conceptual distinctions of varying relevance, Harvey comes to his main point: the war in Iraq is a super-structural expression of long-standing pressures in the economic base (stated in non-Marxist parlance: the economy is making states fight each other). |

| | The demonstration was small compared to the hundreds of thousands who would march later, and while there was some support for the anti-U.S. imperialism view, there was also significant hostility as well. | | | The revisionists hid behind the pacifists, who were no threat to U.S. imperialism, while the clowns such as Abby Hoffman and Jerry Rubin made pro-drug, anti-working class comments that turned many workers and students away from the anti-war movement. | | | Those mighty movements have not defeated imperialism in those countries, so it is no insult to say that the 1960's student movement in the U.S. was a less important factor in ending the Vietnam war. |

| | Anti-imperialism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | This theory of imperialism as the highest stage of capitalism is one of the foundations of Leninism, a branch of Marxism. | | | Thus, anti-imperialists began to focus on opposing globalization, and they were one of the elements that gave birth to the present-day anti-globalization movement. | | | Decades later, Vladimir Lenin argued that imperialism is "the highest stage of capitalism" - that imperialism represents capitalism on a global scale, as opposed to the capitalism on a national scale that had been practiced before. |

| | Playing the anti -imperialist card meant appealing to the "toiling masses" of Asia not to establish socialism but to carry out their own anti-imperialist revolutions. | | | This was not a dispute which concerned the working class interest at all, but was an argument between states in which workers were being asked to choose whose foreign policy pawns they wished to be. | | | This was a dangerous diversion from the class struggle and led to workers supporting the killing in wars of other workers in the interest of one or other state and its ruling class. |
