Summary

Christopher Doran: Making the world safe for capitalism

The war in Iraq defined the first decade of the twenty-first century – it led to mass protests and raised profound questions about domestic politics and the use of military force. However, most explanations of the war have a narrow focus on either political figures or oil. Christopher Doran provides a unique perspective, arguing that the impetus for war came from the threat that Iraq could pose to US economic hegemony if the UN sanctions regime were lifted. Doran argues that this hegemony is rooted in Third World debt and corporate market access. Protecting those deals motivated the US action, not Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction or a simple desire to get its hands on its oil. This book will provide new insights into the war that still casts a shadow over global politics, and will appeal to all those concerned about the Middle East, world peace and global development.

The book is in English.
