More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
We all know what Noam Chomsky is against. His scathing analysis of everything that is wrong with our society reaches more people every day. His brilliant critiques of - among other things - capitalism, imperialism, domestic repression, and government propaganda have become mini publishing industries in themselves. But, in this flood of publishing and republishing, very little ever gets said about what exactly Chomsky stands for, his vision of the future. "Chomsky on Anarchism" shows a different side of this best-selling author: the anarchist principles that have guided him since he was a teenager. This collection of essays, talks and interviews includes pieces that have never been published before, interviews available in English for the first time as well as rare, hard to find material.

Format:Paperback
This is not a theoretical book; Chomsky does not see himself as an anarchist thinker but rather as a "fellow traveler" and so this collection of interviews, talks, and essays spaning from the early 1970s to 2004 contains no original theory from the man himself. Chomsky is as accessible as ever however and this book's interviews will give a reader new to anarchist thought a firm idea of what anarchists are against, and what they are for, with further elaboration of Chomsky's own critique of capitalism, state and government, and their alternatives in the essays and talks.

Do you like reading Chomsky? Interested in Anarchism?
Buy this book then.
It really is as simple as the title. Chomsky talks about Anarchism in a variety of interviews.
I hope through the reading of this book some respect will hopefully be generated for this much maligned and (very) often misunderstood system of thought based on nothing more than a desire for freedom and happiness.

Just an anthology of interviews and essays that are already available elsewhere. Half of it I swear had nothing to do with anarchism.
Unless you're an ardent chomskyite and want to increase the size of your collection, I'd recommend giving this dull and overpriced book a miss.
P.S, the interview at the end with Barry Pateman can be found on youtube.
