«Los guardianes de la libertad» is the essay by Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman on the media, published by Booket in paperback.
For Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman, the mass media are not guardians of truth but propaganda serving the elites. Through a filter model, they show how official truth is constructed, data are manipulated, and public debate is reduced to a consensus favorable to the powerful, across press, radio, and television.
First volume of the Biblioteca de Bolsillo collection. Spanish translation of «Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media», originally published in 1988.
For readers interested in politics, sociology, and critical analysis of the media.
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.
