ลัทธิจักรพรรดินิยม


Explanation:
Cult means "ลัทธิ". (The word cult pejoratively refers to a group whose beliefs or practices are reasonably considered strange.)

Imperial means "จักรพรรดิ". (Referring to when a ruler or line of rulers of a country)

The translation of this two word is "ลัทธิจักรพรรดินิยม" referring to the meaning you specified above.


There is an article named "Imperialism: Chapter 1 of Against Empire" written by Michael Parenti which I used as a reference, http://midnightuniv.org/midnight2545/document95162.html.

Hope this help.
