Their name for this global system was Empire, and it's a handy model. The U.S. decision to invade Iraq? A classic pre-imperial move, oblivious to the complex global consequences of one nation's actions within the powerful web of Empire. But the authors insist that Empire has an upside, that it creates an opportunity for a different kind of democracy, one that would...
