Requiem for the American Dream: The 10 Principles of Concentration of Wealth & Power

£14.99

Manufacturer: Seven Stories

Product Information

"In his first major book on the subject of income inequality, Noam Chomsky skewers the fundamental tenets of neoliberalism and casts a clear, cold, patient eye on the economic facts of life. What are the ten principles of concentration of wealth and power at work in America today? They're simple enough: reduce democracy, shape ideology, redesign the economy, shift the burden onto the poor and middle classes, attack the solidarity of the people, let special interests run the regulators, engineer election results, use fear and the power of the state to keep the rabble in line, manufacture consent, marginalize the population. In Requiem for the American Dream, Chomsky devotes a chapter to each of these ten principles, and adds readings from some of the core texts that have influenced his thinking to bolster his argument."

Adapted from the film of the same name. Created and edited by Peter Hutchison, Kelly Nyks, and Jared P. Scott. Seven Stories Press, 2017.
