Portrait of Noam Chomsky

Noam Chomsky is one of the most influential thinkers of the modern era, renowned for his pioneering work in linguistics and his incisive political commentary. His groundbreaking theories on language revolutionised the field, introducing the concept of an innate human capacity for grammar that reshaped our understanding of mind and communication.

Alongside his academic achievements, Chomsky is a tireless critic of power, media, and foreign policy, offering lucid analyses that challenge conventional narratives. His extensive body of work invites readers to question authority and to examine the structures that shape contemporary society, making his books essential reading for anyone interested in language, politics, and critical thought.

    Book SynopsisChomsky takes on the international scene since 1945, devoting particular attention to events following the collapse of the Soviet Union. He develops a forceful critique of Western government, from imperialist foreign policies to the Clinton administration's empty promises to the poor.Trade ReviewFor nearly thirty years now, Noam Chomsky has parsed the main proposition of American power-what they do is aggression, what we do upholds freedom-with encyclopedic attention to detail and an unflagging sense of outrage. World Orders Old and New... may be his best book; it's certainly his most concise and far-ranging. Utne Reader With his customary mastery of the historical record and his command of enormous amounts of source material, Chomsky here debunks the notion that the 'new world order' of Bush and Clinton is different in any essentials from the old world order... Impressive. The Progressive Judged in terms of the power, range, novelty, and influence of his thought, Noam Chomsky is arguably the most important intellectual alive. New York Times Book Review

    Book SynopsisEn este libro Noam Chomsky y Robert Pollin analizan la economía política del cambio climático y su imbricación con el modelo neoliberal de producción y la globalización financiera. Proponen como salida un Green New Deal, un Nuevo Acuerdo Ecológico mundial que lleve a la eliminación total de las emisiones de carbono hacia 2050. Esta salida, sostienen, solo será realista, justa y posible si asegura la superación de la terrible desigualdad social, la inequidad y el empobrecimiento de las mayorías que el imperio del neoliberalismo ha profundizado en las últimas décadas, y la creación de fuentes de trabajo y salarios dignos para todos.

  • Editorial Crítica La deseducación

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisEl gran lingüista norteamericano, Noam Chomsky, critica duramente el actual sistema de enseñanza. Frente a la idea de que en las escuelas se enseñan los valores democráticos, lo que realmente existe es un modelo colonial de enseñanza diseñado primordialmente para formar profesores cuya dimensión intelectual quede devaluada y sea sustituida por un complejo de procedimientos y técnicas; un modelo que impide el pensamiento crítico e independiente, que no permite razonar sobre lo que se oculta tras las explicaciones y que, por ello mismo, fija estas explicaciones como las únicas posibles. Pocas veces los profesores piden a los alumnos que analicen las estructuras políticas y sociales que informan sus vidas. Raramente se insta a los estudiantes a que descubran la verdad por sí mismos. En La (des)educación, Chomsky nos proporciona excelentes herramientas para desmontar este tipo de enseñanza. Si los educadores rechazan el adiestramiento tecnocrático que les desintelectualiza para convertirse
