"Propaganda," says Noam Chomsky, "is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state"--in other words, the means by which leaders keep the masses in line. In this slim pamphlet, he looks at American propaganda efforts, from the warmongering of Woodrow Wilson to the creation of popular support for the 1991 military intervention in Kuwait, and reveals how falsification of history, suppression of information, and the promotion of vapid, empty concepts have become standard operating procedure for the leaders of the United States--both Democrats and Republicans--in their efforts to prevent citizens from raising awkward questions about U.S. policy.
Synopsis
Examines the area of media manipulation, exploring the varieties of mind control and behaviour modification that result when government and business use image manipulation and disinformation to influence events. In the OPEN MEDIA series.

Chomsky does a masterful job of analyzing the development of propaganda as used by corporations,the government and the media. The book is concise, extremely interesting and well thought out. If you have never read Chomsky, be prepared to read into the mind of a genius. Great stuff. He charts the history of propaganda and makes sense of government and corporate actions that on the surface don't make sense. A must read.

An exceptional read. The subject is one which does not get touched upon enough in the media (but why would it?) It is a clearly written and engaging book. I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. In fact, I am buying a few dozen to to pass out. Few books have been able to notably shift my perspective...this one has. Read it.

I sat down to glance at this book. I thought I would skim through the first chapter to see if it was interesting. I spent the next 45 minutes reading the rest of the book and thinking about what I had read. This short pamphlet is very interesting and informative. A real eye opener. This is a non-fiction book that you will actually read more than once. A must have for anyone who is at all interested in foreign policy or afraid of their lack of real knowledge of what is happening in D.C.

There is more in this book(pamphlet for God's sake) than you could get watching 20 years of news. Noam Chomsky has been influential in the way I look at things now. Lesen Sie weiter...
