What is After the Cataclysm: Postwar Indochina and the Reconstruction of Imperial Ideology (The Political Economy of Human Rights Book 2) about?
Volume two of the influential study of US foreign policy during the Cold War—& the media’s manipulative coverage—by the authors of Manufacturing Consent. First published in 1979, Noam Chomsky & Edward Herman’s two-volume work, The Political Economy of Human Rights, is a devastating analysis of the United States government’s suppression of human rights & support of authoritarianism in Asia, Africa & Latin America during the 1960s & 70s. Still one of the most comprehensive studies of the subject, it demonstrates how government obscured its role in torture, murder & totalitarianism abroad with the aid of the news media. In the first volume, Chomsky & Herman focus on US terror in Indochina. In volume two, After the Cataclysm, the authors examine the immediate aftermath of those actions, with special focus on the Khmer Rouge takeover of Cambodia. Throughout, the authors track the media response to the US interventions—a mixture of willful silence & Orwellian misrepresentation.°°°Noam Chomsky is Institute Professor (emeritus) in the Department of Linguistics & Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology & Laureate Professor of Linguistics & Agnese Nelms Haury Chair in the Pr
