«Año 501» is Noam Chomsky's essay on US foreign policy, published by Libertarias Prodhufi in paperback (444 pages, in Spanish).
The book analyzes US foreign policy from Columbus's voyages to the present, tracing continuities between colonial conquest and modern imperialism. With cases such as Haiti, Cuba, Latin America and Indonesia, Chomsky argues that the logic of subjugation and exploitation has barely changed in five centuries.

Avram Noam Chomsky is an American intellectual, philosopher, linguist, political activist, and social critic. Sometimes called "the father of modern linguistics", Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is a laureate professor of linguistics at the University of Arizona and an institute professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Among the most cited living authors, Chomsky has written more than 150 books on topics such as linguistics, war, and politics. In addition to his work in linguistics, since the 1960s, Chomsky has been an influential voice on the American Left as a consistent critic of the foreign policy of the United States, contemporary capitalism, and corporatocracy.
