Riding the Wave: Sweden's Integration into the Imperialist World System
Manage episode 304694570 series 2391846
Torkil Lauesen returns to the show, this time to discuss his newest book "Riding the Wave: Sweden's Integration into the Imperialist World Order". Pushing back against the narrative that Nordic countries like Sweden are socialist paradises who don't engage in colonialism and imperialism like other western countries, Torkil dives deep into history to deconstruct this rather naive perspective and offer a historical materialist account of Sweden's actual place in the history of colonialism, capitalism, and imperialism.
Henry Hakamaki from Guerrilla History joins Breht for the interview as well!
