The American scientist and publicist Noam Chomsky has for many years defended his revolutionary views with equal passion and conviction in two non-overlapping areas: science and politics. He overturned the idea of the structure of the language, creating the most powerful trend in modern linguistics, and in politics he is known as a consistent and implacable critic of the state in general and the modern American state in particular. Capitalism and socialism in the forms that we know are equally unacceptable to him. Chomsky’s political ideas are radical: «State power must be abolished and replaced by the democratic organization of an industrial society with direct popular control over all institutions.» Since 1970, when this pamphlet was written, society has managed to finally become post-industrial, but it is still interesting to read a lively monologue of a flamboyant libertarian.
