Search - List of Books by Edward S. Herman
"If the business community and political elite want to go to war they find it easy to mobilize domestic consent." -- Edward S. Herman
Edward S. Herman (born 7 April 1925) is an economist and media analyst with a specialty in corporate and regulatory issues as well as political economy and the media. He is Professor Emeritus of Finance at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He also teaches at Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania. He received his Bachelor of Arts from University of Pennsylvania in 1945 and PhD in 1953 from the University of California, Berkeley.
One of his best-known books is Manufacturing Consent, written with Noam Chomsky. More recently, in his and David Peterson's 2010 book, "The Politics of Genocide," Herman argues that some genocides such as Kosovo and Rwanda in 1994 have been exaggerated or misconstrued in the West to advance a specific economic agenda, eventually leading to a minority controlled government of pro-Western and pro-business Tuti, while other genocides, such as East Timor, have been largely ignored for the same reason.
