Dr. Juan Bosch, former President of the Dominican Republic, documents the frightening and potentially disastrous new phase that American imperialism has entered, a phase which he calls "pentagonism."
The old imperialism—exploitation of raw materials and of colonies—has been replaced by a new kind of imperialism: the pentagonist mother country exploits her own people in order to insure the aims of an economy permanently geared to war. The people are exploited as a source of labor and of taxes, which in turn assure that men and war material will be wasted in an endless cycle which profits only the military-industrial complex.
Dr. Bosch ruthlessly examines United States policy in Vietnam, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic; he discusses pentagonism's methods of justifying its actions to the American people; and he documents the takeover of American industry by military interests.
