Noam Chomsky
Where do I start? I've read several articles and I'm liking it so far because he seems to be not very passionate, but thoughtful and reasoning all his points.... any other writer besides him that is worth the read, regarding US foreign policies in the 70's/80's/90's?

Re: Noam Chomsky
Yes... without a doubt, you should be reading his spiritual daughter, Naomi Klein. But watch out for Sean's wrath!

Re: Noam Chomsky
He is wonderful to see in a lecture atmosphere if you ever have the chance.

Manufacturing Consent is a great start book if you are looking for something to read.....and there was a Canadian documentary done on the book too.

Try Edward S. Herman for a similar perspective

Re: Noam Chomsky
I have to deal with Chomsky's scientific work rather than his political articles (Generative Syntax....oh yeah), but now and then I enjoy reading his official Blog

Re: Noam Chomsky
You should watch the documentary Manufacturing Consent, is long as hell but never boring and it gives you an overview of what Chomsky is all about...
