Why You Should Read “The Myth of American Idealism” by Noam Chomsky
The message of Noam Chomsky could not be more urgent, and I’m proud to have helped him produce a new book.
why
I hope it sparks debate and causes people to take seriously the central point of the book, namely the grave threat posed to the world by the U.S. effort to maintain global dominance. The facts laid out in the book are disturbing and in many ways terrifying, and my hope, one I know that Prof. Chomsky has long shared, is that the public will come to understand the danger that we are in and act collectively to radically democratize existing power structures.
This article assumes the reader is American... Why?
Er its noam chomsky, an american.
It seems that the book focus on foreign wars and interventions, but the lasting impact of western culture industry in the whole world is also important. I think it also takes a better life experience out from the ordinary american citizen. The western american citizen could be living a better life (more independent and self-aware), were it not by mass culture.
