Neocolonialism
null
Book •
Kwame Nkrumah's Neocolonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism, published in 1965, analyzes the economic and political control exerted by former colonial powers over newly independent states.
Nkrumah argues that these nations, despite achieving formal independence, remain subject to foreign domination through economic manipulation and political influence.
He discusses how multinational corporations and international financial institutions perpetuate this system, exploiting resources and maintaining dependence.
Nkrumah advocates for Pan-Africanism as a strategy to counter neocolonialism, urging African nations to unite and resist external control.
The book serves as a critique of post-colonial power dynamics and a call for genuine economic and political liberation.
