Theory and Practice. Conversations with Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn
Description
Two of history's most venerable figures on the American Left - Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky - converse with Sasha Lilley about their lives and political philosophies, looking back at eight decades of struggle and theoretical debate. Howard Zinn reflects on the genesis of his politics, from the civil rights and anti-Vietnam war movements to opposing empire today, as well as on history, art, and activism. Noam Chomsky discusses how his libertarian socialist ideals have evolved since childhood, his vision for a future post-capitalist society, and his views on the state, science, the Enlightenment, and the future of the planet.
