Summary

'If I were a voter in Britain， I would vote for [Jeremy Corbyn]' - Noam Chomsky， 2017

Who Rules the World is the essential account of geopolitics right now - including an afterword on President Donald Trump

Noam Chomsky: philosopher， political writer， fearless activist。 No one has done more to question the hidden actors who govern our lives， calling the powers that be to account。 Here he presents Who Rules the World？， his definitive account of those powers， how they work， and why we should be questioning them。

From the dark history of the US and Cuba to China's global rise， from torture memos to sanctions on Iran， this book investigates the defining issues of our times and exposes the hypocrisy at the heart of America's policies and actions。 The world's political and financial elite are now operating almost totally unconstrained by the so-called democratic structure。 With climate change and nuclear proliferation threatening our very survival， dissenting voices have never been more necessary。

Fiercely outspoken and rigorously argued， Who Rules the World？ is an indispensable guide to how things really are。

Great analysis of American policies in international affairs， providing indubitable facts on the US's aggressiveness on the world stage and its hidden "will to power"。 Even though he sometimes leans too much to the left， Chomsky is most of the time surprisingly reasonable。 Great analysis of American policies in international affairs， providing indubitable facts on the US's aggressiveness on the world stage and its hidden "will to power"。 Even though he sometimes leans too much to the left， Chomsky is most of the time surprisingly reasonable。 。。。more

Love Chomsky but kind of disappointed in the book。 Mostly because the book is quite repetitive， and doesn't seem that the arguments are well-organized chapter by chapter。 I feel like if you watched a few interviews with him， you know most of the arguments here。 There are a few gems， but overall， this book could have just as easily be 50-100 pages and accomplished the same。 Love Chomsky but kind of disappointed in the book。 Mostly because the book is quite repetitive， and doesn't seem that the arguments are well-organized chapter by chapter。 I feel like if you watched a few interviews with him， you know most of the arguments here。 There are a few gems， but overall， this book could have just as easily be 50-100 pages and accomplished the same。 。。。more

A justified hitpiece on America's and her allies foreign policy。Chomsky provides ample examples to justify his rhetoric and even provides some advice on what westerners can focus on to tackle the contemporary imperialism of the west。The commentary sounds quite one sided。 The language used changes from hostile， sometimes sensationalistic when talking about actions of America and it's allies， to that of understanding， justification when talking about their enemy （or victim）。 There are times when p A justified hitpiece on America's and her allies foreign policy。Chomsky provides ample examples to justify his rhetoric and even provides some advice on what westerners can focus on to tackle the contemporary imperialism of the west。The commentary sounds quite one sided。 The language used changes from hostile， sometimes sensationalistic when talking about actions of America and it's allies， to that of understanding， justification when talking about their enemy （or victim）。 There are times when presenting statistics of both sides uses language more generous towards the American adversary in the same sentence。 Chomsky is a linguist and a language theorist， so I am convinced that this is deliberate。 It somewhat diminishes the book's value as a source of unbiased analysis。 。。。more

teaching us the various flavors of the worst side of American pretensions in international affairs: that it is dominated by ‘masters，’ that the political institutions are dominated by powerful energy and financial industries， that doctrines purporting to seek peace and free trade are in fact attempts to monopolize energy resources and give financial advantage， that these efforts are both unsuccessful and destructive of peace， that campaigns of terror in Cuba and Latin America exemplify the futile efforts of the ‘masters，’ that the arms race against the USSR was never justified， and after 1989， without even that excuse， NATO and arms building found new excuses （Chomsky is a rare voice pointing out that NATO's vastness threatens Russia unnecessarily and so destabilizes Europe， the Balkans， Crimea， and the Middle East）， that support for Israel directly implicates the masters in outright aggression against the Palestinian people， that Iran is not the threat we are all told to take it for， and US policy regarding the region is by turns venal and hysterical。 These points are not made with accumulations of evidence and historical argumentation， but through rattling off of fragments and pronouncements， often repeating and cycling back around， giving us the twin impressions of there being more to the story and that the author is repeating himself。 Hence a read-through from start to finish gives one round of bitter flavors after another， in cycles that speed up near the end， as the papers get shorter。 As with Howard Zinn， Chomsky subscribes to the theory that far too much of international affairs is influenced by “masters of mankind” first noticed by Adam Smith and the other British political economists — the merchants and manufacturers who made sure their interests came first， no matter how “grievous” the effect would be on others。 This is introduced in the first chapter， and reiterated in the 12th， on class war in the United States， and again， in almost the same exact terms， in chapter 23， on contemporary international relation challenges。 In effect， we see one of the tools that Chomsky often reaches for in stand-alone essays， and which are perhaps inevitably going to be repeated in any book of his miscellanies。 The problem is perhaps not so much in the repetition as in the facileness of the argument。 Libertarian-minded political economist Diedre McCloskey argues， much more systematically， that the impulse for the merchant and manufacturer class to control political institutions has been the main cause of economic growth since the 18th century， and this logic is the only way forward。 Even if we do not agree with McCloskey， we can’t find the counterargument in Chomsky， only a list of moral and political failures， each of which we can imagine being the start of long and protracted arguments。 Still， it is worth noting — listing， really — the main features of Chomsky's international relations opinions， for follow-up reading and study。 It behooves us also to ask what Chomsky leaves out， in his story。 （He leaves out， for example， the overall growth of the economy， improvements to human health， and decreases in world poverty。） Based on my notes， some of the propositions here include:Elections in the United States are overly dominated by large-scale donors。 US power has been diminishing since its peak in 1945， but this reality is neither adequately faced up to by political and economic leaders， nor by intellectuals。 American liberal internationalism opposes what it terms “excess of democracy。”The USA and other states condemn terrorist activity by others but engage in terrorism and acts of aggression that are even worse， and which ultimately result in increased numbers of radical terrorists。Public opinion tends toward reasonable solutions， but is too often ignored。 Public outcry can make a difference， but “historical amnesia” is a stubborn problem。 The hypothesis of efficient markets is no more than dangerous dogma， and anyway the USA and other countries are always biased towards benefiting their patrons and against free markets。 Hence， in inheriting the hegemon role of Lord Palmerston over the “Grand Area，” the Middle East energy resource fields， we have failed even to maximize the resources， much less stabilize the region。 Preferential treatment in favor of Israel has been equivalent to hysteria against Iran， inhumanity to Palestinians， and becoming the dupes of Saudi Arabia and the Sunni world; Israel is not more stable as a result， either。 Latin America has gotten only raw deals as a result of US policies since the Monroe doctrine。 Guatemala never recovered from the coup sponsored by the CIA under Eisenhower。 El Salvador and Nicaragua were plunged into chaos thanks to “Global War on Terror” policies under Reagan。 And the 2009 Honduras Coup was “almost alone legitimized” by President Obama。 In Cuba， the JFK administration oversaw Operation Mongoose， a terrorist war against Cuba that few know the true extent of — the Bay of Pigs and assassination attempts on Castro are just the beginning。 The clumsy aggression of Operation Mongoose played a role in plunging the world into the Cuban Missile Crisis。 The USSR behaved more reasonably than the USA in the instance。 This one occasion when nuclear war has only narrowly avoided; the world remains in grave danger， though there are some prospects for denuclearization。 （Obama was no help on this at all。）American decline is visible on both domestic and world stages， with quite apparent social decay in the country， from the labor sector and unemployment first and foremost; the “masters” care not for the vast majority。 China is growing， demanding hegemony over the East Asian Sphere in an increasingly multi-polar world; our strategies in response are unreasonable and unlikely to work。 Much of the world thinks the USA is the number one threat to world peace; if we brought welfare instead of aggression， we could potentially reverse this opinion （which is also a fact）。 Traditional and indigenous societies are key to developing strategies to mitigate environmental disasters — see especially the experience of Bolivia。 Some sources that I definitely want to follow up on: G。 D。 H。 Cole， Guild Socialism: A Plan for Economic Democracy （1921）。 Hans Morgenthau， The Purpose of American Politics （1964）。 Laurence
