WHO RULES THE WORLD? - NOAM CHOMSKY KARTONIERT ...

A New York Times BestsellerWith a New AfterwordThe world's leading intellectual offers a
probing examination of the nature of U.S. policies post-9 11  and the perils of valuing power
above democracy and human rights. In an incisive  thorough analysis of the current
international situation  Noam Chomsky examines the way that the United States  despite the rise
of Europe and Asia  still largely sets the terms of global discourse. Drawing on a wide range
of examples  from the sordid history of U.S. involvement with Cuba to the sanctions on Iran  he
details how America's rhetoric of freedom and human rights so often diverges from its actions.
He delves deep into the conflicts in Iraq  Afghanistan  and Israel-Palestine  providing
unexpected and nuanced insights into the workings of imperial power on our increasingly chaotic
planet. And  in a new afterword  he addresses the election of Donald Trump and what it shows
about American society. Fierce  unsparing  and meticulously documented  Who Rules the World?
delivers the indispensable understanding of the central issues of our time that we have come to
expect from Chomsky. An American Empire Project
