Gerald Sussman's 'Branding Democracy' offers a crucial analysis of the ways in which citizens are under assault from an army trying to control our minds. With a sophisticated understanding of modern propaganda, Sussman looks at the way our government sells empire through 'democracy promotion'. If real democracy is to emerge in this world, we must take Sussman's analysis to heart. (Robert Jensen, School of Journalism, University of Texas at Austin; Author of 'Writing Dissent: Taking Radical Ideas from the Margins to the Mainstream' (Peter Lang, 2002))
