This book is based on the Henry Wendt Lecture by the well known economist Deepak Lal, delivered at the American Enterprise Institute in 2002, In Defense of Empires. The book is addressed to a broad audience. Lal believes empires are special -- and good. Specifically, they maintain peace and promote prosperity better, Lal argues, than any other system -- and much of the book is a historical overview of empires and their successes . Especially impressive: the British Empire, creating "the first truly global economy, the first truly liberal international economic order".
