Necessary illusions

In his national bestselling 1988 CBC Massey Lectures, Noam Chomsky inquires into the nature of the media in a political system where the population cannot be disciplined by force and thus must be subjected to more subtle forms of ideological control. Specific cases are illustrated in detail, using the U.S. media primarily but also media in other societies. Chomsky considers how the media might be democratized (as part of the general problem of developing more democratic institutions) in order to offer citizens broader and more meaningful participation in social and political life.

  • "Da sempre Chomsky si interroga sul ruolo politico degli intellettuali - i "nuovi mandarini" - nella società occidentale. Qui analizza in particolare la funzione svolta dei mass media (americani ma non solo) in un sistema in cui la popolazione non può essere disciplinata con la forza e deve quindi essere sottoposta a forme più sottili di controllo ideologico. E strappa la maschera illusoria e auto-illusoria che ritrae la stampa come la paladina della verità, come l'argine della pubblica opinione nei confronti del potere. Per Chomsky i media, pur nella dialettica progressisti/conservatori, sono uno strumento del potere per il controllo del consenso e del dissenso."

  • "De publieke opinie in de westerse geïndustrialiseerde landen wordt zodanig gemanipuleerd dat de bestaande machtsverhoudingen gehandhaafd blijven."
  • "This is an essential introduction to the "propaganda model" of media analysis. Chomsky offers a message of hope, reminding us that resistance is possible, necessary and effective."
  • "A Pluto Classic. Chomsky at his best, as he explodes the myth that the media in Western democracies function as neutral purveyors of objective fact or as seekers of truth."@en
