Review: "For over half a century, the United States has been pursuing a grand imperial strategy with the aim of staking out the globe. Its leaders have shown themselves willing to follow the dream of dominance up to the edge of extinction. Now the Bush administration is intensifying this process, driving us toward the final frontiers of imperial control, toward a choice between the prerogatives of power and a livable Earth. In Hegemony or Survival, Noam Chomsky investigates how we came to this moment, what kind of peril we find ourselves in, and why America's rulers are willing to jeopardize the future of our species."--BOOK JACKET.
