WHO RULES THE WORLD?

Noam Chomsky

This collection of essays by the public intellectual Noam Chomsky probes issues such as China’s meteoric rise, sanctions against Iran, the relationship between the United States and Cuba, and the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan. Chomsky extensively critiques the United States, arguing that the country is hypocritical for touting the values of freedom and human rights on the world stage while at the same time acting in authoritarian, imperial ways.
