Synopsis: |
Noam Chomsky has a best-selling size market of book buyers who eagerly await each new book and interview he gives. As the leading U.S. dissident on global politics, his articles, interviews and texts are widely translated by the world's newspapers, Web sites and publishing houses. As an Open Media title, the book will be an accessible length with a recession-conscious price point. As Chomsky interview books like 9-11 and What Uncle Sam Really Wants have demonstrated, even Chomsky interview books have bestselling, breakout potential. This book will be aggressively marketed to Chomsky's core readership-politically progressive and radical online, print and radio. This book contains more than Chomsky interviews, however. For the first time, through dialogues convened by Lois Meyer and Benjamin Maldonado, Chomsky converses with more than 20 intellectuals and activists of indigenous movements from South and North America. Some of the commentators are protagonists in the resistance struggles on which Chomsky reflects in the interviews. Others are prolific analysts of indigenous liberation efforts across the hemisphere, whose publications are widely cited throughout the Portuguese and Spanish-speaking Americas. |
