Synopsis "El Beneficio es lo que Cuenta (in Spanish)"

Noam Chomsky, nos ofrece en este libro una crítica frontal del neoliberalismo y del nuevo «orden global»: una crítica de la mitología del mercado, de la manipulación de la opinión pública a través de unos medios de información controlados por los intereses empresariales, del impacto oculto que ejercen entidades antidemocráticas como la Organización Mundial de Comercio o el Fondo Monetario Internacional, del proyectado Acuerdo Multilateral sobre Inversiones (MAI), de los recortes en los programas sociales, de la forma en que las políticas neoliberales transfieren el poder de decidir cuestiones que nos conciernen a todos a manos de «tiranías privadas que operan en secreto y sin control público»... Contra estas amenazas Chomsky propone la participación activa de todos, la movilización de las organizaciones populares de base, de esas «hordas» integradas por sindicatos, grupos de presión ecologistas y defensores de los derechos humanos que empiezan a aterrorizar a los dirigentes del sistema establecido. Propone, en suma, la recuperación de una democracia entendida como un sistema global, no sólo como un mercado global, y que defienda los derechos de todos, no sólo como consumidores, sino como ciudadanos.

Noam Chomsky (born in 1928) is an American linguist, philosopher, and political activist, considered one of the most influential intellectual figures of the 20th century. He revolutionized linguistics with his theory of generative grammar, introduced in Syntactic Structures (1957), and further developed in Aspects of the Theory of Syntax (1965). His approach transformed the study of language, linking it to cognition and the human mind. In 2019, he was awarded the BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Humanities for his exceptional contributions to the study of human language.

In addition to his work in linguistics, Chomsky is known for his critique of the media and US foreign policy. Along with Edward S. Herman, he co-wrote Manufacturing Consent (1988), where they present the model of media propaganda. Other notable works include Hegemony or Survival (2003), which analyzes US foreign policy, and Reflections on Language (1975), where he defends a rationalist perspective on human nature. His output spans political essays, linguistics, and philosophy, consolidating his legacy as a critical and multidisciplinary thinker.
