Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Critiquing U.S. military and economic actions globally, Chomsky and Robinson argue that the American pursuit of dominance has caused widespread chaos without enhancing national safety. They reveal how U.S. elites perpetuate myths about democracy to justify harmful foreign policies, with a focus on conflicts like those in Iraq and Afghanistan. The authors warn that these narratives are driving the U.S. toward dangerous confrontations with Russia and China, while also exacerbating threats like nuclear proliferation and climate change. This work serves as a critical examination of American ideals and their consequences.
