Even in the time of “neoliberal” globalisation, we continue to face a world economy founded on economic exploitation – despite changes such as technological leaps in the productive forces, the restructuring of world production, and the widespread liberalisation of developing countries’ economies.
It is in this spirit of commemorating Marx’s living legacies in move- ments and in our analysis of world capitalism that the Institute of Political Economy (IPE), the International League of Peoples’ Strug- gle (ILPS) and the Kilusang Mayo Uno (KMU – May First Labour Movement) held a study conference that generated this book. We are publishing this towards better understanding the contemporary ways of monopoly capitalism and imperialism, towards setting our sights clearer in defeating imperialism and all reaction in the Philippines and eventually the world.
