How Sanctions Work
I love Chomsky, but to be honest, sometimes I can't really tell the difference between his books. Regardless of whether the topic is rogue states, failed states, hegemony, etc., he's often pretty much saying the same sorts of things -- corporatism, hypocrisy, abuse of power, Orwellian language, and general bullying and lack of responsibility by those with power. That being said, he is brilliant at explaining things clearly and concisely in ways that historians and news media simply refuse to. Like all of Chomsky's political writings, this book is a stinging indictment of the world's power structure and the ways that those who have power use it to benefit themselves to the detriment of democracy and peace, and the ways in which powerful people and powerful states can get away with things that the less powerful cannot.
