Ha ancora senso oggi parlare di Palestina e Israele usando espressioni come "processo di pace", "soluzione a due Stati", "partizione"?

Le tesi di Noam Chomsky e Ilan Pappe raccolte in questo volume ruotano attorno all'idea che i tempi siano maturi per un cambio di rotta.

Eindrücklich wie nie zuvor klärt Chomsky über die existentiellen Bedrohungen durch Atomwaffen und den Klimawandel auf. Er stellt diese Bedrohungen in den Kontext einer nie dagewesenen globalen Macht der Konzerne, die mittlerweile die führende Rolle bei der Gestaltung unserer Zukunft übernommen haben. Noam Chomsky zeigt, dass sich globale Volksbewegungen mobilisieren müssen, um die Regierungen zu zwingen, sich der beispiellosen Herausforderung für das Überleben unserer Zivilisation zu stellen.

Chomsky disecciona los diez principios fundamentales de la concentración de la riqueza y el poder en Estados Unidos, que a efectos prácticos han secuestrado la democracia en favor de los intereses de una élite políticofinanciera, sumiendo a un gran porcentaje de la población en la miseria y desesperanza más absolutas. Con su habitual agudeza, Chomsky muestra cómo los principales excesos y rasgos espeluznantes de la realidad estadounidense forman parte de una estrategia integral por parte de la casta dominante para aferrarse al poder y a los privilegios que éste conlleva.

Noam Chomsky ist einer der wichtigsten Denker der Gegenwart. Der emeritierte MIT-Professor am weltbekannten Massachusetts Institute of Technology gilt als ein "Mann für alles". In diesem Buch spricht Chomsky über die großen Fragen: Warum herrscht auf unserer Welt weiterhin so viel Ungleichheit? Leben wir bereits in der Dystopie? Steht die Menschheit am Rande der Selbstauslöschung? Warum begehren die "99 Prozent" nicht gegen die "Eliten", die "Herren der Menschheit", wie Chomsky sie einst nannte, auf?

Chomsky pointed out how the U.S. government had opened a Pandora's Box with their loose interpretation of pre-emptive strike.

Making the Future presents more than 50 concise and persuasively argued commentaries on U.S. politics and policies, written between 2007 and 2011.

Der New York Times- und SPIEGEL-Bestseller. Von einem der streitbarsten Denker der Gegenwart - Noam Chomsky. Nach wie vor betrachten sich die USA grundsätzlich als die Guten - selbst dann, wenn sie das Gleiche tun wie jene, denen sie Böses unterstellen: Zivilflugzeuge abschießen, willkürlich Leute inhaftieren und mit Drohnen umbringen oder in fremde Länder einmarschieren. Das Primat der militärischen Intervention und der unerbittliche Drang, alleinige Weltmacht zu bleiben, bilden die Konstanten der amerikanischen Politik - auch wenn dadurch Staaten ins Chaos und Menschen ins Verderben getrieben werden.
