Author: Noam Chomsky
Format: Paperback
Number of Pages: 256
Noam Chomsky has been described as 'the world's greatest dissident' and 'arguably the most important intellectual alive'. For 30 years, his dissident views have alerted an increasingly concerned public to the true nature of power. His perceptive descriptions of how the public is excluded from decision-making and policy formation provide new insights into major events in the world today. From East Timor to the Middle East, from the nature of democracy to our place in the natural world, from international politics to the politics of language, Powers and Prospects provides a scathing critique of orthodox views and government policy. Chomsky lifts the veil of lies that diverts the public from knowledge of the heinous acts being committed in their name. He reveals how the 'new' world order is a remarketing of the same old disorder. His refreshingly clear views of the world and the nature of things are supported by a wealth of detail. Powers and Prospects reflects Chomsky's latest thinking on a broad range of themes and is based upon a series of addresses he delivered to sell-out audiences on his 1995 visit to Australia.
