Noam Chomsky, página 2 de 16

In this all-new collection of conversations, Noam Chomsky explores immediate and urgent international concerns including Iran's challenge to the United States, the deterioration of the Israel-Palestine conflict, the ongoing occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, the rise of China, and the growing power of the left in Latin America, as well as the Democratic victory in the US midterm elections and its ramifications for the future. As always, Chomsky presents his own ideas vividly and accessibly, with uncompromising principles and valuable insights. These interviews will inspire a new generation of readers, as well as long-term Chomsky fans eager for his latest thinking on the many crises the world now confronts.

At a time when the United States exacts a greater and greater power over the rest of the world, America's leading voice of dissent needs to be heard more than ever. In over thirty timely, accessible and urgent essays, Chomsky cogently examines the burning issues of our post-9/11 world, covering the invasion and occupation of Iraq the Bush presidency and the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. This is an essential collection, from a vital and authoritative perspective.

From the targeting of schools and hospitals, to the indiscriminate use of white phosphorus, Israel's conduct in 'Operation Cast Lead' has rattled even some of its most strident supporters. In this book, Noam Chomsky and Ilan Pappe survey the fallout from that devastation, and place the massacre in Gaza in the context of Israel's long-standing war against the Palestinians. Gaza in Crisis is a rigorous, historically informed and much-needed analysis of the situation and will be welcomed by all those eager for Chomsky's insights into yet another political catastrophe.

Noam Chomsky argues that, contrary to popular perception, the real 'rogue' states in the world today are not the dictator-led developing countries we hear about in the news, but the United States and its allies. He challenges the legal and humanitarian reasons given to justify intervention in global conflicts in order to reveal the West's shameless reliance on the rule of force. He examines NATO's intervention in Kosovo, the crisis in East Timor, and US involvement in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Latin America. Chomsky relies on both historical context and recently released government documents to trace the paths of self-interest and domination that fuelled these violent regional conflicts. Throughout, he reveals the United States's increasingly open dismissal of the United Nations and international legal precedent in justifying its motives and actions. Characteristically incisive and provocative, Chomsky demonstrates that the rule of law has been reduced to farce.

En esta monografía se estudian un buen número de cuestiones relacionadas con las teorías de la rección y de la acotación; particularmente, la posibilidad de adoptar un enfoque unificado de las mismas. Partiendo de la idea intuitiva de que ciertas categorias en ciertas configuraciones son barreras para la reccion y el movimiento, se considera si las mismas categorias son barreras en ambos casos o si, por el contrario, una barrera es suficiente para bloquear la reccion, mientras que es necesaria mas de una barrera, quiza de forma gradual, para impedir el movimiento. Chomsky procede a partir de una serie de especulaciones sobre que idealizacion de ciertos fenomenos complejos es la mas adecuada -como deben encajar estos fenomenos dentro de una variedad de sistemas de interaccion cuyo funcionamiento todavia es poco claro. Puede considerarse que estos fenomenos son relevantes para el estudio de los subsistemas sobre los que se centra la investigacion, pero parece posible explicarlos por factores independientes (y, a menudo, desconocidos). En Barreras se tienen en cuenta muchos de los posibles caminos que surgen de entre el laberinto de posibilidades. Se fija el contexto de las subteorias (las teorias de la X con barra, del movimiento y de la reccion) con el fin de determinar que es una barrera.

El lector podrá comprobar por sí mismo que el"clásico"de plena actualidad que tiene en la mano es un modelo de introducción al estudio científico del lenguaje y, a la vez, una vía de acceso a las ciencias humanas hasta ahora no sobrepasada. El novedoso y profundo analisis sintactico de este libro hace ver que la estructura no superficial del ingles y del español tienen mucho mas en comun de lo que la enseñanza usual de estas lenguas pone de manifiesto.

Un libro que aborda el ascenso y consolidación de la nueva izquierda política en Chile desde el profundo análisis de Noam Titelman."En base a sus propias columnas y artículos académicos, Titelman ofrece entradas analiticas, honestidad intelectual y acceso privilegiado a pedazos de nuestra historia reciente. Lo hace al servicio de una mejor comprension de lo que el llama la nueva izquierda y, sobre todo, de la capacidad de esta para representar a quienes habitan el pais. El objetivo no es estetico, es profundamente politico" (Michelle Bachelet).La politica en Chile esta hoy marcada por la desconexion: en los movimientos sociales, en sus representantes, en la ciudadania, en nuestra vision sobre el pasado y el futuro. Esta desconexion es el destino de una generacion politica que hoy se ve dominada por un hambre de "nosotros", que tiene diversas expresiones, pero que choca contra una sociedad que ya no cuenta con aquellos relatos de comunidad que le permitirian sostener una identidad comun.

''As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, the powerful can do as they please and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.''In the post-9/11 era, America''s policy-makers have increasingly prioritised the pursuit of power, both military and economic, above all else - human rights, democracy, even security. Drawing on examples ranging from expanding drone assassination programs to civil war in Syria to the continued violence in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Israel and Palestine, philosopher, political commentator and prolific activist Noam Chomsky offers unexpected and nuanced insights into the workings of imperial power in our increasingly chaotic planet.

Entre los intelectuales de izquierda, Noam Chomsky se distingue por su especial relación con el activismo, y por ser él mismo un activista político de larguísimo recorrido, además de un crítico implacable y clarividente. En este libro, que puede leerse como el legado de Chomsky a los activistas de hoy y de mañana, el intelectual estadounidense repasa por primera vez toda una vida de compromiso politico, analizando con la agudeza acostumbrada los desafios a los que se enfrentan los movimientos progresistas en todo el mundo occidental, asi como el sentido del activismo frente a los complicados escenarios geopoliticos y socioeconomicos de la actualidad.Universalizar la resistencia es una guia que marca nuevas directivas para los activistas de hoy y que reflexiona sobre el significado y el valor del compromiso politico en un mundo condicionado y transformado por acontecimientos como la pandemia y la crisis economica. Pero, alejandose del pesimismo apocaliptico de muchos politologos contemporaneos, Chomsky deja filtrar en su analisis un reconfortarte destello de esperanza que pasa por la firme conviccion de que el activismo puede ser como lo ha sido en el pasado una poderosa herramienta para cambiar a mejor el curso de la historia.

Lucidly written, thoroughly documented, and featuring a new Afterword by the author, "Hegemony or Survival" is today''s most influential thinker''s definitive statement on America''s alleged quest for global dominance. "Reading Chomsky today is sobering and instructive . . . He is a global phenomenon . . . perhaps the most widely read voice on foreign policy on the planet." -"The New York Times Book Review"An immediate national bestseller, "Hegemony or Survival" demonstrates how, for more than half a century the United States has been pursuing a grand imperial strategy with the aim of staking out the globe. Our leaders have shown themselves willing-as in the Cuban missile crisis-to follow the dream of dominance no matter how high the risks. World-renowned intellectual Noam Chomsky investigates how we came to this perilous moment and why our rulers are willing to jeopardize the future of our species.With the striking logic that is his trademark, Chomsky tracks the U.S. government''s aggressive pursuit of "full spectrum dominance" and vividly lays out how the most recent manifestations of the politics of global control-from unilateralism to the dismantling of international agreements to state terrorism-cohere in a drive for hegemony that ultimately threatens our existence. Lucidly written, thoroughly documented, and featuring a new afterword by the author, "Hegemony or Survival "is a definitive statement from one of today''s most influential thinkers.
