Hegemony or Survival : America's Quest for Global Dominance

Is America's superpower mentality leading us all towards global disaster? The United States' pursuit of global domination is a recipe for planetary destruction, argues Noam Chomsky. The militarization of space, the development of ballistic missile defences and the flouting of numerous international agreements - all these are making the world far more dangerous and unstable, with potentially catastrophic consequences. Taking in the war on terrorism, the Bush doctrine and the all-important question ""Is resistance possible?"", Chomsky presents us with a lucid and powerful argument against the American government's aggressive strategies and sets the agenda for the next phase of debate and activism.
