In this video, Chomsky presents with rigorous analysis and humor his reflection on the motivations behind 9/11 and its consequences on the international system. Chomsky starts with the principle that we need to think globally when we want to comprehend the world of today. He defines the notion of terrorism within its historical context and gives his thoughts on how we should fight it without exercising the politics of the most powerful.

  • Canada - 1992 - 168 mn | Réalisation : Mark ACHBAR et Peter WINTONICK | Manufacturing Consent is a documentary film that explores the political life and ideas of Noam Chomsky, a linguist, intellectual, and political activist. Created by two Canadian independent filmmakers, it expands on the ideas of Chomsky's earlier book, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media, which he co-wrote with Edward S. Herman. The film presents and illustrates Chomsky's and Herman's propaganda model, the thesis that corporate media, as profit-driven institutions, tend to serve and further the agendas of the interests of dominant, elite groups in the society. | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noam_Chomsky | http://www.chomsky.info | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufacturing_Consent:_Noam_Chomsky_and_the_Media
