Defines our understanding of colonialism and empire.

Assembles the best of Chomsky's talks on the politics of power. In a series of wide-ranging discussions, this work radically reinterprets the events, covering topics from foreign policy during the Vietnam War to the decline of welfare under the Clinton administration.

Exposes the policies that have led to American imperialism and the massive military deployment that accompanies it, suggesting that the US could suffer the same overstretch that led to the demise of the Soviet Union.

Argues that though globalization should be a powerful force for good, it has been badly mishandled by the West (especially its lead institutions, the World Bank and the IMF), and that the anti-globalizing protesters have much to say that we should listen to.

Centred on research into the US media, but drawing off evidence from the English-language media worldwide, this text is based on the Massey Lectures in Canada. Noam Chomsky argues that the media operate in the service of powerful institutions rather than in opposition to them.
