Is America's superpower mentality leading us all towards global disaster?

Is America's superpower mentality leading us all towards global disaster? destruction, argues Noam Chomsky. The militarization of space, the development of ballistic missile defences and the flouting of numerous international agreements - all these are making the world far more dangerous and unstable, with potentially catastrophic consequences. Taking in the war on terrorism, the Bush doctrine and the all-important question Is resistance possible?, Chomsky presents us with a lucid argument against the American government's aggressive strategies and sets the agenda for the next phase of debate and activism.
