Admired by some, condemned by others, and feared by all-the
military might of the West is undeniably colossal. In On Western
Terrorism, world-renowned intellectual Noam Chomsky discusses
Western power and propaganda with filmmaker and investigative
journalist Andre Vltchek. It offers the perfect introduction to
Chomsky's significant political thought and provides an accessible
approach for anyone who wishes to better understand the West's
fraught role in the world. Beginning with stories of the New York
newsstand where Chomsky started his political education as a
teenager, the discussion broadens out to encompass colonialism,
imperial control, propaganda, the Arab Spring, and drone warfare.
Chomsky and Vltchek offer a powerful critique of the legacy of
colonialism, touching upon many countries including Syria,
Nicaragua, Cuba, China, Chile, and Turkey. Updated with a fresh
design and a new foreword by Chomsky, On Western Terrorism remains
an influential and powerful critique of the West's role in the
world, inspiring all who read it to think independently and
critically.

Indonesia: Archipelago of Fear is a fascinating and at times
unsettling journey into the world's most populous Muslim nation as
it struggles to emerge from decades of dictatorship and the plunder
of its natural resources.
Andre Vltchek brings together more than a decade of investigative
journalism in and around Indonesia to chart the recent history of
the country, from the revolution which overthrew General Suharto's
genocidal dictatorship in 1998 to the present day. He covers the
full breadth of the country from Islamic Aceh to mostly Catholic
East Timor.
Tracing back Indonesia's current problems to Suharto's coup and the
genocide of 1965 - and the support given by the West to Suharto -
Vltchek provides an intimate and deeply humane insight into the
hopes and fears of Indonesia's people.
