From one of the world’s most prominent thinkers comes an urgent warning
of the threat that US power poses to humanity’s future
The land of the free. The home of the brave. But what has America
achieved in the aim of ‘spreading democracy’ ― except wreak havoc
across the globe and establish a reckless foreign policy that serves
the interest of few and has endangered all too many?
In this timely book, Noam Chomsky writing with Nathan J. Robinson,
vividly traces America’s pursuit of global domination, offering an
incisive critique of the self-serving myths that dominant elites in the
United States continue to push.
Offering penetrating accounts of Washington’s role in the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, they
examine how interventions such as these have been justified with noble
stories about humanitarian missions and benevolent intentions but are
now driving us closer to wars with Russia and China.
At once thorough and devastating, urgent and provocative, The Myth of
American Idealism offers a highly readable entry to the conclusions
Noam Chomsky has come to after a lifetime of thought and activism.
