In 'Year 501: The Conquest Continues,' renowned intellectual Noam Chomsky presents a devastating account of the last 500 years of Western imperialism. Chomsky meticulously documents the brutal history of colonialism, from the arrival of Columbus in the Americas to modern-day interventions, exposing the enduring patterns of exploitation, violence, and hypocrisy that have shaped the global order. He argues that this 'conquest' is not a historical relic but an ongoing process, challenging readers to confront the uncomfortable truths behind the wealth and power of the West and its impact on the rest of the world.
