Noam Chomsky speaks live at RIFF today!

It is with great pleasure that RIFF presents a live video-conference with Noam Chomsky. Chomsky is an American linguist, philosopher, cognitive scientist, and political activist, and will address the audience live from his hometown of Cambridge, Massachusetts, at Háskólabíó Cinema at 17:00.

In his video-conference in Reykjavik, in light of the near collapse of the western economic system, Chomsky will address the questions: where can we find hope, and what are the alternatives we should be building? Also, what can Iceland learn from what happened? He will also discuss the responsibility of intellectuals, and additionally, environmental issues will be addressed.

At the same opportunity, panel talks will take place regarding the political, economical and social crises Iceland has suffered since the crash of October 2008.
