Ultra-imperialism

From ProleWiki, the proletarian encyclopedia

Ultra-imperialism is a hypothetical higher state of capitalism proposed by Karl Kautsky that would occur after imperialism. Kautsky claimed that war would end when all the imperialist countries formed a single union to exploit the world. He used this theory to justify the multipolar imperialism that existed during his time.[1]
