Abstract: The American scholar, Intan Suwandi, constructs a theoretical-analytical framework which is centered on the concept of the “labor-value commodity chain” and informed by the notion of new economic imperialism. She clarifies the core mechanism of the international transfer of surplus value, examines the issue of global labor arbitrage, and illustrates the reality of the construction of globalized imperialist hierarchies with case studies to reveal the essence of new economic imperialism in the laborvalue commodity chain. Intan Suwandis theory of new economic imperialism provides a novel theoretical perspective for examining the interest relations in the contemporary imperialist economic system, while the corresponding empirical studies and case analysis constitute the empirical expansion of research on imperialism.
