A great introductory text on the history of how empire came to be and how empire continues to manifest today.

The fact that this came out in 2020 and yet nothing has changed, instead, things have gotten worse. I do think this was an extremely informative read and I do recommend it. There was a lot of things that I did not know about.

Whether spurred by revolution or tipped into collapse under its own weight, the West will eventually fall.

I am not quite sure what all the negative feedback on this book is. This book is a collection of essays guiding us through different aspects, levels and geographical effects of colonialism and neo-colonialism. It feels like your favourite Professor going in on this weeks lecture materials. The author adds their own opinion and humor for context and “comedic relief”.
A lot of the book will leave you gob smacked if this is your first book of the sort but apart from that I don’t really understand the reviews.
This book is not a quick read but definitely manageable in your regular reading speed for 200 pages. My speed is not reflective of the storytelling but of a busy schedule. So please do not be deterred to read this.
