Publisher's Synopsis

ions of U.S. Policy Chomsky observes the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights while chronicling how the foreign policy of the US too often differs from its rhetoric. Analysing the contradictions of US power while illustrating the real progress won by sustained popular struggle, Chomsky cuts through official political language to examine how the US not only violates the Universal Declaration, but at times uses it as a weapon to wield against an ever-changing set of enemies.
