The Essential Chomsky

 

 

 

It’s good to have a little history. We each act in the world through our own historical framework and that is different for each person. Democracy can only be a true form government, if the people are willing to participate in their governance. Transparency is one of my favorite ideas as a tool to help improve our democracy by engaging common people to participate with governing this beautiful country to save it from imminent doom and to transform it into a Land of LIberty and Justice for All.

 

I have been a student of his books for many years now. I have not read them all from cover to cover, but I have also listened to several hours of him talking, and I am a firm believer if every person could listen to him, they could better understand what actions to take to remedy the catastrophe we have created.

The rich don’t care too much because they believe their money will save them, but in the new world, money is art.

 

 

Mr. Chomsky’s desire to be frank and honest with the American People and to the World, is the reason Hugo Chavez  recommended his book, Hegemony or Survival. Hegemony is a word we don’t use in common everyday language because we are living inside its metaphor, our culture and our society are the very shadows we struggle to break free from.

I like when I find new and interesting websites that are moving forward with the very things I want to be a part of…

Here’s another online library: http://openlibrary.org/b/OL12439476M/The_Essential_Chomsky

How does it work to be able to read a book “in” the library if the library is online? Is online a new Virtual Reality that we must conider a part of nature?

 

I find websites sometimes like I find books, so sometimes I come across something and will post it without having fully looked through it, so forgive me if I offend anyone. Everything on here is only to be considered as instructional materials for the newly formed AnuMe University. I am the founder. Smiles.

 

If I am interested in learning anything, it is how to be Free. Growing up in a country that talks about Liberty as if it were a dream, an ideal, some lofty goal for those who have the wealth to explore it properly – and that understanding of Capitalism, that it somehow, increases our liberty, has been the reason why it has been so easy to push the ideals of NewLibralism around the globe, even proposing whole new regions of Free Trade Zones.

 

But one of the things I enjoy about Mr. Chomsky is that he talks about What is Possible, if we, as engaged citizens, can do to create the World we Believe In. Not a Christian or Islamic World. Not an American or Chinese World. But a World Free, where each person is allowed to experience the fullness of their potential within the parameters of their creativity. Laziness will not be a successful trait carried onto the next generation. Sloth, obesity, laziness, ignorance, will not be carried forward in our evolutionary development. I wonder if that’s why the “Survival of the Fittest” is an analogy many strive to exemplify.

 

It is not a class struggle. The Rich Class, the Kingly or Brahmin Class, is not the class of Emperors and Dictators, it will be the class of peasants and servants. Wealth is not limited by physical resources and as we continue to develop the technology that will allow for life enhancement procedures to be undergone by anyone – an expense not limited by the cash in our accounts, then we can learn to develop new ways of Communitizing who we Are. Freedom and Conformity are not mutually exclusive. We can be Free and conform to our society’s limitations, but that often has led to depression, anger, violence, and even war. We can understand humanity, not only as we have become but as what can become of us.

 

 

The Essential Chomsky
Edited by Anthony Arnove

In a single volume, the seminal writings of the world’s leading philosopher, linguist, and critic, published to coincide with his eightieth birthday.

For the past forty years Noam Chomsky’s writings on politics and language have established him as a preeminent public intellectual and as one of the most original and wide-ranging political and social critics of our time. Among the seminal figures in linguistic theory over the past century, since the 1960s Chomsky has also secured a place as perhaps the leading dissident voice in the United States.

Chomsky’s many bestselling works — including Manufacturing Consent, Hegemony or Survival, Understanding Power, and Failed States — have served as essential touchstones for dissidents, activists, scholars, and concerned citizens on subjects ranging from the media to human rights to intellectual freedom. In particular, Chomsky’s scathing critiques of the U.S. wars in Vietnam, Central America, and the Middle East have furnished a widely accepted intellectual inspiration for antiwar movements over nearly four decades.

The Essential Chomsky assembles the core of his most important writings, including excerpts from his most influential texts over the past forty years. Here is an unprecedented, comprehensive overview of Chomsky’s thought.
