5.0 out of 5 stars Critically important listening for anyone concerned with the current direction of American federal policy, December 14, 2005

This review is from: The Imperial Presidency (AK Press Audio) (Audio CD)

"The Imperial Presidency: Sovereignty,Terror, And The Second Superpower" by linguist, academician, and political analyst Noam Chomsky is now available as a 64-minute CD audio recording. Taped on November 2004, just after the reelection of George W. Bush, Chomsky accurately pinpoints the principle commitments of the current Bush administration. Acting in the name of expanding markets and controlling access to key natural resources, the Bush administration's "neo-cons" have blatantly been undermining democratic practices, exhibited contempt for international law, systematically restricted civil liberties, and utilized the state terrorism to further their foreign poicy objectives. "The Imperial Presidency" offers a lively chronicle of the systematic power-plays by Bush and his cronies to effectively wrench power from ordinary people and in doing so, has made the world an increasingly unstable and hostile place to inhabit for Americans and for everyone else in the world. "The Imperial Power" is critically important listening for anyone concerned with the current direction of American federal policy and White House machinations on both the domestic and the international stages.
