Imperial Ambitions: Conversations with Noam Chomsky on the Post-9/11 World

Imperial Ambitions: Conversations with Noam Chomsky on the Post-9/11 World

by NoamChomsky (Author), David Barsamian (Contributor)

Synopsis

In this important new collection of interviews with the acclaimed radio journalist David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky discuses U.S. foreign policy in the post-9/11 world. Barsamian has a unique rapport with Chomsky - having conducted more interviews and radio broadcasts with him than any other journalist - and here explores topics Chomsky has never before discussed: the 2004 presidential campaign and election; the future of Social Security; the increasing threat of global warming; and new dangers presented by the United States' ever-deepening entanglement in Iraq. The result is an illuminating dialogue with one of the world's leading thinkers - and a startling picture of the turbulent world in which we live.
