Inhaltsangabe

A series of interviews with Noam Chomsky, the world's greatest living public intellectual, about the pressing issues of our time

'One of the greatest, most radical public thinkers of our time’ Arundhati Roy

In this illuminating collection of interviews, Noam Chomsky shares his insights on the pressing challenges facing humanity. A Liveable Future is Possible addresses artificial intelligence and the potential for such programs to surpass humans in cognitive awareness; what lies ahead for a world engulfed in a deadly climate crisis; the rise of neo-fascism internationally, and why we should organize across borders to confront it and the striking similarities between Trump and Biden's foreign policies.

Noam Chomsky has been an incomparable model of moral clarity and intellectual courage during his many decades as a scholar, political activist and social critic. A Liveable Future Is Possible is not only an urgent and informative book, it is a call-to-action for those hoping to help carry the torch of one of history’s greatest minds.

‘Chomsky is a global phenomenon . . . he may be the most widely read American voice on foreign policy on the planet’ The New York Times Book Review
