Fiction or Non-Fiction, academic or casual, theory or non-theory, feel free to mention books of any genre and on any topic.
I recommend following Lenin's imperialism with Fanon's Wretched of the Earth, Nkrumah's work on Neocolonialism, and finally Cheng Enfu's work on Neoimperialism. Africa is largely absent from Lenin's book, and Fanon helps analyze the class struggle in the colonial context. Nkrumah carries that to the neocolonial era, and Cheng Enfu carries that to the modern day. This gives you a fairly complete view of how imperialism has aged since Lenin.
Thank you, comrade. I'll add those to my reading list.
No problem!
