Known primerily for `Syntactic Structures' considered
to have revolutionized the field of linguistics with
his interpretation of language and its relation with
and mind, Chomsky certainly is a respectable
`philosophical' figure in India.
A known critic of US economic policies,
Chomsky’s book, `Profit over People', can be a good
eye-opener for all those who advocate `Adventure'
capitilism as the only solution to development. The
book looks at the system of global order and control
in which he argues that the ruling class uses markets
and regulations selectively. The operations of markets
are distorted to secure profits for the privileged,
while the ‘logic’ of markets is mercilessly imposed on
the masses.
Something can certainly be learnt from him for
application in Himachal.
