To start off, I am not that familiar with Rosa Luxemburg's take on imperialism, even though I've heard stuff about it being an inescapable world system.
So, where are the detailed differences? Did she have a completely different take that couldn't/can't be "understood" by a "Leninist" prism? [By that, did she cough up altogether different features of imperialism that bear no relation whatsoever to Lenin's five features?]
If not, then what are the details?
1) Formation of monopolies?
2) Increased role of finance capital (per Hilferding)?
3) Export of capital?
4) Economic division of the world, including the formation of cartels?
5) Political division of the world, superexploitation, etc.?
