Abstract: The theory of New Imperialism proposed by Chris Harman, a British Marxist economist, focuses on the period of new imperialism which started from the end of the Second World War, and is different from the period of classical imperialism. In accordance with Harman, this period of new imperialism consists of the following stages: the emergence of new imperialism in the early Cold War (represented by state capitalism), the consolidation and development of new imperialism in the mid and late Cold War (characterized by the globalization of neoliberalism and financialization), and the disintegration of the global dominance of new imperialism since the 21st century (featuring financial crises and an overall capitalist crisis). New imperialism has a permanent war economy as its precondition, neoliberalism as its ideology, economic colonialism as its main strategy, and the formation of an international financial monopoly as its major manifestation. However, the law of the uneven development of imperialism still works. The unbalanced economic development caused by the war economy has entrapped imperialist states into a dilemma. Financial crises have become the main form of contemporary economic crises, giving rise to various opposition movements. There are numerous conflicts among imperialist states. The economic crisis of imperialism is developing into an overall crisis. The only solution to the contradictions of new imperialism is to substitute an economic institution centering on the public ownership for the capitalist private ownership, which features a fundamental contradiction between the socialization of production and the private ownership of the means of production, and to substitute the thought of a community with a shared future for mankind for the law of the uneven development of imperialism.
