America's Addiction to Terrorism

Click here to access article by Shabbir Lakha from CounterPunch

The author points to many of the issues raised in an interesting new book entitled America’s Addiction to Terrorism by Henry A. Giroux.
As well as explaining in detail some of the biggest issues faced by society today, Giroux very eloquently connects the dots between them and highlights their roots within the neoliberal project. Giroux discusses torture, militarisation, surveillance, racism, education and austerity among other things and draws the links to the military-industrial-academic complex. In this review, I will go through some of Giroux’s arguments and his suggestions for working-class resistance against them.
