NOAM CHOMSKY (b. 1928) is an American linguist, philosopher, historian, social critic and political activist. His work from the 1950s revolutionized the field of linguistics by treating language as a uniquely human, biologically based cognitive capacity. Chomsky also gained a worldwide following as a political dissident for his analyses of the pernicious influence of economic elites on U.S. domestic politics, foreign policy, and intellectual culture. Ideologically, he aligns with anarcho-syndicalism and libertarian socialism.
During his postgraduate work, Chomsky developed the theory of transformational grammar for which he earned his doctorate in 1955. That year he began teaching at MIT, and emerged as a significant figure in linguistics with his landmark work SYNTACTIC STRUCTURES (1957), which played a major role in remodeling the study of language. He created or co-created the universal grammar theory, the generative grammar theory, the Chomsky hierarchy, and the minimalist program. Chomsky also played a pivotal role in the decline of linguistic behaviorism, and was particularly critical of the work of B. F. Skinner.
Chomsky's status as the "most-quoted living author" is credited to his political writings, which vastly outnumber his publications on linguistics. As an outspoken opponent of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, which he saw as an act of imperialism, Chomsky rose to national attention for his anti-war essay "The Responsibility of Intellectuals" (1967). Associated with the New Left, he was arrested multiple times for his activism and placed on President Richard Nixon's Enemies List. While expanding his work in linguistics over subsequent decades, he also became involved in the linguistics wars. In collaboration with Edward S. Herman, Chomsky later articulated the propaganda model of media criticism in MANUFACTURING CONSENT (1988) and worked to expose the Indonesian occupation of East Timor. His defense of freedom of speech, including Holocaust denial, generated significant controversy in the Faurisson affair of the 1980s. Since retiring from MIT, he has continued his vocal political activism, including opposing the 2003 invasion of Iraq and supporting the Occupy movement.
Chomsky has influenced a broad array of academic fields. He is widely recognized as having helped to spark the cognitive revolution in the human sciences, contributing to the development of a new cognitivistic framework for the study of language and the mind. In addition to his continued scholarship, he remains a leading critic of U.S. foreign policy, neoliberalism and contemporary state capitalism, the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, and mainstream news media. His ideas are highly influential in the anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist movements, but have also drawn criticism, with some accusing Chomsky of anti-Americanism.
