If the current system is incapable of dealing with these threats, he argues, it's up to us to radically change it. These ten interviews, conducted from 2013 to 2016, examine the latest developments around the globe: the devastation of Syria, the reach of state surveillance, growing anger over economic inequality, the place of religion in American political culture, and the bitterly contested 2016 U.S. presidential election. In accompanying personal reflections on his Philadelphia childhood and his eighty- seventh birthday, Chomsky also describes his own intellectual journey and the development of his uncompromising stance as America's premier dissident intellectual.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 210mmItem Length: 140mmType: HistoryRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
