The jargon of the international economy fills the air: fast track, globalisation, the Multilateral Agreement on Investment, Asian tiger meltdowns, and IMF bailouts. Since the economy of Thailand began to unravel in the summer of 1997, a domino-like effect has been felt throughout Asia. South Korea, the 11th biggest economy in the world, is the focus of the largest bailout in history. The ripple may become a tide, effecting Japan and ultimately the US.
Noam Chomsky, internationally renowned MIT professor, has been a leading voice for peace and social justice for more than four decades. He is in such demand as a public speaker that he is often booked years in advance. And wherever he appears, he draws huge audiences. The Guardian calls him, "One of the radical heroes of our age." He is the author of Power and Terror, Middle East Illusion and Hegemony or Survival." He's done a series of interview books with David Barsamian including The Common Good and Propaganda and the Public Mind.
