The US Bases and Their Contributions to US Hegemony
Abstract
This study analyzes the perpetuation of US hegemony through its overseas
military bases. It takes a Marxist-Gramscist hegemony approach as its theoretical
basis and discusses the political processes, ideological debates, security
perceptions; economic goals and hegemony seeking attempts when these bases
are deployed. The study claims that the US used all its military deployments
towards achieving its goals, with many military invasions being launched
through the bases to perpetuate the hegemonic order in favor of US interests. In
short, the US overseas military base structure forms part of its hegemonic
expansion and is a reflection of hegemony’s coercion component.
