This volume offers readers a concise and accessible introduction to
the ideas of Noam Chomsky, described by the New York Times as
"arguably the most important intellectual alive." In these recent,
wide-ranging interviews, conducted for Truthout by C. J.
Polychroniou, Chomsky discusses his views on the "war on terror"
and the rise of neoliberalism, the refugee crisis and cracks in the
European Union, prospects for a just peace in Israel/Palestine, the
rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, the dysfunctional US
electoral system, the grave danger posed to humanity by the climate
crisis, and the hopes, prospects, and challenges of building a
movement for radical change. Noam Chomsky is Institute Professor
(Emeritus) in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy at MIT.
His work is widely credited with having revolutionized the field of
modern linguistics. He is the author of numerous best-selling
political works, which have been translated into scores of
languages worldwide. C. J. Polychroniou is a regular contributor to
Truthout as well as a member of Truthout's Public Intellectual
Project. He has published several books and his articles have
appeared in a variety of journals, magazines, newspapers, and
popular news websites.
