«El beneficio es lo que cuenta» is the essay by Noam Chomsky, published by Editorial Crítica in paperback (200 pages, in Spanish).
Chomsky criticizes the dogma of the market and denounces how media controlled by corporate interests shape public opinion, while bodies such as the IMF and the WTO act beyond citizen control. Against that order, he defends a democracy that protects people's rights as citizens, not just as consumers.
With the subtitle «Neoliberalismo y orden global», this 2000 Spanish edition is translated by Antonio Desmonts.
Aimed at readers interested in political and economic criticism and in the thought of Noam Chomsky.
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.
