Rogue States: The Rule of Force in World Affairs

In this provocative work, Noam Chomsky challenges the conventional view of "rogue states," arguing that the greatest threats to international law and global stability are not authoritarian regimes in the developing world, but the United States and its Western allies. Examining the legal, political, and humanitarian justifications often used to defend military intervention, Chomsky contends that these actions frequently reflect the exercise of power rather than a commitment to justice. Through a critical analysis of foreign policy, he invites readers to reconsider the narratives that shape global politics and the true dynamics of international power.
