«La globalización de los derechos humanos» is the collective essay with texts by Noam Chomsky and Susan George, edited by Matthew J. Gibney, in paperback.
It brings together critical voices to dismantle the clichés of globalization: far from benefiting everyone, it is a process of exclusion that leaves numerous social groups in poverty. The authors call for economic development and technological change combined with universal respect for human rights, against exploitation, violence and injustice.
Collective work of 256 pages published in 2003; in addition to Chomsky and George, contributors include Joseph E. Stiglitz, Vandana Shiva, Homi K. Bhabha and K. Anthony Appiah.
Aimed at readers interested in critical thinking about globalization, the world economy and the defence of human rights.
Avram Noam Chomsky is an American intellectual, philosopher, linguist, political activist, and social critic. Sometimes called "the father of modern linguistics", Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is a laureate professor of linguistics at the University of Arizona and an institute professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Among the most cited living authors, Chomsky has written more than 150 books on topics such as linguistics, war, and politics. In addition to his work in linguistics, since the 1960s, Chomsky has been an influential voice on the American Left as a consistent critic of the foreign policy of the United States, contemporary capitalism, and corporatocracy.
