Guardian Unlimited Books | By genre | Observer review: Hegemony or Survival by Noam Chomsky:
" 'Recognition that control of opinion is the foundation of government, from
the most despotic to the most free, goes back at least to Hume,' he
writes. 'But a qualification should be added. It is far more important in the
most free societies, where obedience cannot be maintained by the lash.'
Got that? Not that propaganda is more subtle in the United States than, say,
China, or harder to detect in Britain than say, North Korea, but 'more
important'. To the far Left, accustomed to decades of defeat, Chomsky's account
of the brainwashing of the dumb masses provides an excuse for failure. For
others he presents a curiously ethno-centric and soothing view of the world."

Hegemony or Survival by Noam Chomsky:
"Chomsky dissects with meticulous research how the United States has chosen to
leverage that position to pursue an 'imperial grand strategy', which will
ensure itself 'unilateral world domination through absolute military
superiority'. "
