Professor Chomsky discussed how youth can effectively work to change the world and improve policies at both the local and international levels. He stressed the need for youth around the world to work together and to come up with their own solutions, saying repeatedly that the answer must come from students, not from him. When told that he was the leading progressive intellectual in the United States, he promptly replied, \u201cI resign!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There have been several Korean media interviews with Professor Chomsky over the years, but this seminar was the first time that Korean students, including those not fluent in English, were able to ask Professor Chomsky questions directly. This dialog between experts and young people is emblematic of the Asia Institute approach to contemporary issues. Professor Chomsky later remarked, \u201cI much appreciated the opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video on Youtube:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3EDwDU39H2s&amp;feature=youtu.be\">Part 1<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/KUeni1OZG0E\">Part 2<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/hPLoK7bbr2E\">Part 3<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Asia Institute Seminar with Professor Noam Chomsky Department of Linguistics Massachusetts Institute of Technology \u201cWHAT CAN YOUTH DO TO CHANGE THE WORLD?\u201d The Asia Institute held this Webinar with Professor Noam Chomsky of MIT on December 3, 2011 as a webinar between Seoul, Korea and Cambridge, Massachusetts.
