FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Here is a major collection from arguably the most important intellectual alive (the New York Times). Noam Chomsky is universally accepted as one of the pre-eminent public intellectuals of the modern era. Over the past thirty years, broadly diverse audiences have gathered to attend his sold-out lectures. Now, in Understanding Power, Peter Mitchell and John Schoeffel have assembled the best of Chomskys recent talks on the past, present, and future of the politics of power.In a series of enlightening and wide-ranging discussions, all published here for the first time, Chomsky radically reinterprets the events of the past three decades, covering topics from foreign policy during Vietnam to the decline of welfare under the Clinton administration. And as he elucidates the connection between Americas imperialistic foreign policy and the decline of domestic social services, Chomsky also discerns the necessary steps to take toward social change.With an eye to political activism and the medias role in popular struggle, as well as US foreign and domestic policy, Understanding Power offers a sweeping critique of the world around us and is definitive Chomsky. Characterised by Chomskys accessible and informative style, this is the ideal book for those new to his work as well as for those who have been listening for years. Author Biography Authors Bio, not available Review Quote If, like me, you wonder why Chomsky is a fox for hunting, this collection of Chomskys speeches will be illuminating. He is sardonic and reasonable, with a gift for looking behind what the camera is showing you and revealing how the cameras came to be there and who has written the script. Because his subject is frequently the manipulation of the news, and he includes commentators among the cheerfully duped, he will never be popular.
