The "taproot of imperialism" is not in nationalist pride, but in capitalist oligarchy; and, as a form of economic organization, imperialism is unnecessary and immoral, the result of the distribution of wealth in a capitalist society. That dysfunction of political economy created the
social cultural desire to extend the national markets into foreign lands, in search of profits greater than those available in the Mother Country.
