"Reading Chomsky today is sobering and instructive . . . He is a global phenomenon . . . perhaps the most widely read voice on foreign policy on the planet." —The New York Times Book Review

An immediate national bestseller, Hegemony or Survival demonstrates how the United States has pursued a grand imperial strategy with the aim of staking out the globe. Our leaders have shown themselves willing to follow the dream of dominance no matter how high the risks. 

In lucidly written prose, with rich documentation, Chomsky investigates how we came to this perilous moment and why our rulers are willing to jeopardize the future of our species.

With the striking logic that is his trademark, Chomsky tracks the U.S. government's aggressive pursuit of "full spectrum dominance" and vividly lays out how its drive for hegemony ultimately threatens our existence.
