Annotation Here, for the first time, is the Spanish translation of Noam Chomsky & rsquo;sNew York TimesbestsellerInterventions. Since 2002, Chomsky has written a column for The New York Times Syndicate in which he cogently and critically examines the leading issues of the day. These columns have been published in major newspapers around the globe, including theInternational Herald Tribune, and have helped gain an even larger global audience for Chomsky & rsquo;s views. Yet few have appeared in the pages of US or Canadian newspapers, and only one of the columns included here appeared in the pages ofThe New York Timesitself. Concise and fiercely argued, Intervencionescovers the invasion and occupation of Iraq, the Bush presidency, Israel and Palestine, Israel & rsquo;s invasion of Lebanon, national security, the escalating threat of nuclear warfare, and more. It is a powerful and accessible new book from one of America & rsquo;s foremost political intellectuals and dissidents. Noam Chomskyhas taught for many years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he is Institute Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy. His 1957 bookSyntactic Structuresis widely credited with having revolutionized the field of modern linguistics. Chomsky is the author of numerous best-selling political works, includingHegemony or Survival(Metropolitan/Owl). Eduardo Galeanois the author ofThe Open Veins of Latin Americaand many other classics. He lives in Montevideo, Uruguay.
