    For anyone that wants an intro to international neoliberal colonialism, I'm currently working my way through Unholy Trinity by Richard Peet. Pretty good for introductory materials on IMF, World Bank, and WTO. Writing is somewhat subpar, but it is easy-ish reading if you already have somewhat of a background in Marxist theory and know buzzwords from the neoliberal economics world. Would recommend if you have the time. It can be found on Zlibrary!

    Anyone more knowledgeable have other resources? So far the book is more history and broad explanations of these institution's policies with some brief case studies. Would love in-depth reading on specific crises. Might just resort to Wikipedia though lol.

      Imperialism in the 21st century by John Smith is another useful resource for understanding how modern imperialism transfers wealth to the imperial core
