The Giraffe's Neck and the Snowflake
Professor Noam Chomsky discusses a life of academic and public dissent, fuelled by an optimistic belief in the ability of people to force change from below. Chomsky's revolutionary work on the structure of language challenged the orthodoxy of the 1950s and, outside the academy, he has become one of the most trenchant indigenous critics of America's foreign policy.
