In Imperialism and Social Classes Schumpeter presents a theory of how states become empires and applies his insight to explaining many historical episodes. His account of the foreign policy of Imperial Rome reads like a critique of the United States today. The second essay examines class mobility and political dynamics within a capitalistic society. Imperialism and Social Classes is an important contribution to the literature of political economy.
