Noam Chomsky on the World: The Chomsky Sessions
One of the most respected intellectuals of the 20th century, Noam Chomsky, has had a long and prolific career as a linguist, philosopher, and political activist. Undoubtedly, though, he is best known as the quintessential American dissident. Chomsky's criticism of U.S. foreign policy began with the Vietnam War and continued over the span of the next 40 years. In this collection of candid interviews, lectures, and classroom discussions, the professor emeritus details the entire arc of 20th century Amercian politics in the way that only he can. Can the tragedy of 9/11 actually be traced back to 1920s public policy? In addition to exploring this thought-provoking question, Chomsky also speaks about the history of resistance and struggle in America that he sees as a critical component to the "civilizing" of the entire nation.
