Making the Future

Occupations, Interventions, Empire and Resistance




An indispensable insight into a world in turmoil - from one of the world's most respected political commentators

'The fate of democracy is at stake in Madison, Wisconsin, no less than it is in Tahrir Square'

Making the Future is the latest collection of essays from Noam Chomsky, one of our most vital and provocative voices of political dissent.

Taking up the thread from 2007's Interventions, these penetrating and compelling articles examine numerous topics, including the financial crisis, Obama's presidency, WikiLeaks and the on-going conflicts in the Middle East.

Restating and refining his commitment to democracy and finding inspiration in the popular uprisings of the Arab Spring, Making the Future is Chomsky's fiercely-argued and timely comment on a fast-changing world.
