Examining the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the author critiques the United States' deviation from its principles in practice. By analyzing the contradictions of U.S. power, the book highlights the progress achieved through grassroots activism while revealing how the U.S. often violates the Declaration and manipulates it against adversaries. Chomsky's insights challenge official narratives and underscore the need for a more genuine commitment to human rights.
