"In different ways, the fate of democracy as at stake in Madison, Wisconsin, no less than it is in Tahrir Square", Chomsky writes in this work, and the collection of brief analyses of global interventions - as well as power plays by the governments engaging in them - unveils that assumption in the work. The plight of Palestinians, desperation of Rust Belt working class left at the hands of neoliberal policies, and many more stories shed light on the kind of big picture look that Chomsky is always recognised for.
