Non-economic areas of life? This must be the work of a non-economist? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.78.50 (talk) 10:10, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Earlier Edit restored

The pre-25 April 2008 Edit of the article was restored (wiht slight editing to restore a link). The reason is that the 25 April Edit completely changed the subject of the article and usage of the article title, which is a valid usage attested at for example the top Google Scholar hit: Edward Lazear, "Economic Imperialism". The Quarterly Journal of Economics. February 2000, Vol. 115, No. 1, pp. 99-146

Another usage, to which the recent Edit was referring, is that at the above Google School hit #6 for the same term: David S. Landes, "Some Thoughts on the Nature of Economic Imperialism," The Journal of Economic History, Vol. 21, No. 4 (Dec., 1961), pp. 496-512.

A suggestion wiuld be the other usage have a separate article & title (say "Economic imperialism (politics)"). --Thomasmeeks (talk) 21:00, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Another possbile title for the above alternative usage that would fit well with a usage of political economy is "Economic imperialism (political economy)". --Thomasmeeks (talk) 13:24, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
