Noam Chomsky, an influential linguist, philosopher, and political activist, has left an indelible mark on various academic fields. Known for his groundbreaking work in linguistics, Chomsky introduced the theory of universal grammar, challenging prevailing notions about language acquisition. Beyond linguistics, he is a prominent critic of media, corporate power, and government policies. Chomsky’s political writings, including “Manufacturing Consent,” co-authored with Edward S. Herman, examine the role of mass media in shaping public opinion. His outspoken critiques of U.S. foreign policy and advocacy for social justice have established him as a leading intellectual and a vocal proponent of human rights.
