My guest is Dr. Immanuel Ness, one of the foremost scholars of contemporary imperialism, workers’ social organization, Global South political economy, socialism and migration. We discuss the concept of economic imperialism in today's time and how the theory of imperialism has changed since the time of Lenin. We also discuss the theory of the labor aristocracy in Marxist thought, whether China is truly a socialist country and the status of working class struggles in China compared to America.

Immanuel Ness is an American academic, and Professor of Political Science at the City University of New York, Brooklyn, School of Humanities and Social Sciences. His academic focus is on workers' organization, migration, mobilization and politics. His latest book is entitled Migration as Economic Imperialism: How International Labour Mobility Undermines Economic Development in Poor Countries and is published with Polity Press.
