Noam Chomsky is perhaps the most famous (or infamous) academic who is also a prominent public intellectual. Chomsky is known first and foremost for his decades of activism on the political left: opposing American imperialism, advocating for egalitarian and democratic social policies and engaging in feuds with prominent right-wing intellectuals. Now in his 90s, Chomsky continues to pursue a dizzyingly busy schedule focusing on political activism, including an interview with yours truly, which will be livestreamed on 16 April. Love him or hate him, Chomsky’s energy is impressive.
