Internationalism or extinction

Abstract

No one but Noam Chomsky so passionately links the twin, man-made threats to organized human existence-cataclysmic climate change and nuclear doomsday machines-and no previous communications of his interact with one another. The introduction and accompanying interviews place these dual threats in a framework of unprecedented corporate global power which has overtaken nation states’ ability to control the future and preserve the planet. Chomsky argues for the urgency of international climate and arms agreements, showing how global popular movements are mobilizing to force governments to meet this unprecedented challenge to civilization’s survival.
