Please add me to the Imperialiam Reading Group and ping me whenever in the future you plan to read another book. I just discovered this group today. I’m especially annoyed I missed this particular book, but I hope to read it on my own anyway.

This is a weekly thread in which we read through books on and related to imperialism and geopolitics. Last week's thread is here
The book we have finished reading through is Empire's Workshop by Greg Grandin. There are two main editions, to my knowledge: the original one with a yellow cover from 2006, and an updated version from 2021 with an orange cover. I have read the latter version.
Please comment or message me directly if you wish to be pinged for this group, or if you no longer wish to be pinged.
This week, we will be reading Chapter 15 and the epilogue.
Imperialism Reading Group Ping!
As I said last week, this concludes Empire's Workshop!
Now, we go on a break for a few months, as things are getting geopolitically complicated and I want to focus more on analysing current events than historical events. I'll let you know a couple weeks in advance when I have a more exact date. In the meantime, feel free to catch up if needed, post questions, post book suggestions, and request to join/leave the ping list.
