I would like some reccomended reading for a University project based on imperialism and the debt owed by western “advanced” society to the third world. I already have the basics — Lenin, Fanon, Liberalism - A Counter History, Inglorious Empire, Late Victorian Holocausts and How Europe Underdeveloped Africa — so i’m looking more towards how the people and societies of the first world got so rich, rather than the details of the crimes of empires (but both are good). The books don’t have to be by leftists, but obviously it would be preferred. Thanks.

Fuck, I should have been more specific. I am not looking for 20/21st century imperialism, but much more so in the 18th and 19th centuries.
