Description: London, Pluto Press. 1997. (ISBN: 0745313205). Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy. 343 pages. In this widely acclaimed study of global politics, Noam Chomsky offers a devastating critique of conventional definitions of the 'new world order'. It is, he argues, nothing more than an ingenious piece of 'historical engineering', wherby the pretexts for the Cold War - nuclear threat, Eastern Bloc menace - have been deftly replaced by a new set of convenient justifications for a Western agenda that remains largely unchanged. He draws together a wealth of historical detail in support of his argument, demonstrating with awesome clarity that the basic rules of world order remain as they always hve been. The book has been updated to include coverage of the latest developments in the Middle East peace process. 3. Fine/No Jacket.
