Noam Chomsky: Democracy Is a Threat to Any
Power System
Video
To mark The Nation’s 150th anniversary, John Nichols was joined in conversation
by the eminent radical intellectual Noam Chomsky at the Tucson Festival of Books
in Arizona on March 15. Discussing issues ranging from media accountability and
voter participation, to money in politics and income inequality, Chomsky offered
insight into the greatest challenges of our time.
“The race towards disaster is being carried out with almost euphoric intensity,”
said Chomsky. Chomsky maintains that meaningful change requires a democratic
awakening. “Democracy is a threat to any power system,” he said.
