تقييمي. الترجمة سيئة Noam Chomsky is brilliant, Whether you agree with his philosophies or not, he's a force to be acknowledged and considered, . . because he's brilliant. Εξαιρετικό! Πιο επίκαιρο από ποτέ ειδικά για τους Έλληνες αλλά και Ευρωπαίους πολίτες που θα καταλάβουν βαθιά την "αμερικανοποίηση" της ζωή μας. Περιεχόμενα: η παγκόσμια τράπεζα, ρατσισμός, σύστημα υγείας, πεντάγωνοιδιωτική οικονομία κοινωνική πολιτική κ. ά. Συνεντεύξεις του καθηγητή Chomky στον David Borsamian από τοεώς και το. Ελληνικός τίτλος: Η ΧΕΙΡΑΓΩΓΗΣΗ ΤΩΝ ΜΑΖΩΝ, εκδόσεις SCRIPTA. Older interview books often become outdated quickly, I try to read Noam Chomsky at least twice a year as a reminder of the possibilities that are out there.
This is a serious of radio interviews Chomsky gave in the earlys, and is more accessible than some of his more formal works.
I'm always impressed by Chomsky's insight and the breadth of his knowledge, One passage I underlined, about the pardons that Bushgave to those implicated in the IranContra scandal:
"I frankly didn't take the pardons all that seriously.
It was a highly selective prosecution, They didn't go after top people or the important issues, What they were being charged with is minor issues, Lying to Congress is bad, it's a serious violation of law which carries a fiveyear jail sentence, But compared with carrying out huge international terrorist operations, it's pretty small potatoes, Nobody was charged with conducting an illegal war against Nicaragua, They were only charged with lying to Congress about it, It indicates the values that lie behind the prosecution, In other words, kill and torture whoever you like, but be sure to tell us, We want to take part too, If you think about it, that's exactly what happened in Watergate, The charges against Nixon never included bombing Cambodia, It did come up in the hearings, but the only respect in which it came up was that Nixon had lied to Congress about it.
There was no charge ever that he had sent U, S. bombers to devastate Cambodian peasant society, killing tens of thousands of people, " ليس عصارة نقية كما اراد لها كاتب ان تخرج
حصيلة حوارات على مدى ايام على اثير الاذاعة حركها ديفيد بارساميان قبل ان يخطها على صفحات كتاب لم يستثني اسئلة المستمعين او حتى العثرات الانسانية في الحوار
تشومسكي لن يألو جهدا في تعرية هذا النظام الإمبريالي المتوحش بكل الوسائل
ما يميز الكتاب برأيي انه جاء بعد سنوات قليلة من انهيار المنظومة الاشتراكية ويكشف عن الخطوات الامريكيةللسيطرة على شعوب العالم عداك عن شعبها في توطئة الى سنوات لاحقة تعدت الحتى الان

While Rabble is one of the minor books in the Chomsky oeuvre, it is as thoughtprovoking and informative as any other Chomsky.
Keeping the Rabble in Line deals mainly with earlys politics, including NAFTA, GATT, Haiti, the Bush Sr.
administrations, as well as early Clinton administration, Other, more permanent issues, such as media control, gun control, global warming, health care and even a quick note on the internet, are also discussed in the context of the times.
Yet, the book does not feel outdated, and in fact provides the reader with background to understand the present situation not just on these issues, but also the Third Worldization of the wealthy nations, as well as American foreign policy in Israel/Palestine/Lebanon, or Chile.
While these are all complex issues, they are explained in an accessible manner, This corrobarates one of Chomsky's most important ideas, that if economy policy is described plainly, the average person can understand not just the reasons behind it, but also why it's negative for the working class.
And if the word 'class' makes you recoil, Rabble also features a primer on why and how the American business class has made this word odious for those toiling under them.
The one thing I think Rabble could've been clearer about is how Nixon's dismantling of the Bretton Woods system lead to unregulated capital floating around.
Sidenote: Isn't Chomsky amazing I can type phrases such as "Nixon's dismantling of the Bretton Woods system" and have more than a vague idea about what I'm talking about.
Specifically, what is/was this unregulated capital Why is it bad that it became unregulated What could've been done to alleviate the effects of the dismantling of the Bretton Woods system I feel that, while Barsamian's questions and Chomsky's answers were immensely clear about all other topics covered in the book, this unregulated capital kept coming up in various discussions, without really explaining what unregulated meant in that context.
Also, and aside from the index, a few footnotes linking related topics together e, g. "see more of this topic in interview" would've added clarity and made the book seem more thoughtout and cohesive.
From one of the world's most formidable political cartographers, Noam Chomsky, a map to the emerging global economic regime.
He outlines his views on a wide range of issues, including health care, global warming and more, Another great book of interviews from David Barsamian with Noam Chomsky, I started reading this hoping to stumble across a great quote untying the notion that the economic system and all of the oppression created by it is controlled by a small group of folks looking to fuck people over.
Fucking people over happens but not because of some grand conspiracy, It happens because of the economic system we live in, A little dated in some ways and in others totally prescient, Barsamian's sections on health care, crime and gun control, reflections on democracy, race, and class were all great.
I recommend this book. It's totally accessible and conversational, I found this book a bit hard to follow because most of the events that are talked about happened when I was, at most,or, and most of the details aren't really written about.
But it was still a great literary intro for me to Noam Chomsky and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in him.
