European Journal of International Relations Vol. 24, Issue. 4, December 2018, pp.911-933 (26)Summary: In analysing the role of the US in the global expansion of capitalist relations, most critical accounts see the US military's invasion and conquest of various states as paving the way for the arrival of US businesses and capitalist relations.
