Brave New Words
Is Technology the Saviour of Free Speech?

First Edition


March 2010 | 192 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
Winner 2008 Amnesty International Consumer Magazine of the Year

About This Issue

The internet has not only been a revolution for free speech - it's reinvented censorship. Cyber utopia has brought with it new forms of control - and it's not just authoritarian regimes that are limiting access to what we read and watch. Democracies are also curbing our right to information, whether in the name of child protection or copyright. Index on Censorship takes a close look at the new rules of the game, with contributions from bloggers, activists, journalists and experts around the world.

About Index on Censorship

From 2010 SAGE is proud to be the publisher of Index on Censorship, the award-winning magazine devoted to protecting and promoting free expression. International in outlook, outspoken in comment, Index reports on free expression violations around the world, publishes banned writing and shines a light on vital free expression issues through original, accessible and intelligent commentary and analysis, publishing some of the world's finest writers.

Published four times a year (March, June, September, December), Index is available via annual subscription or to purchase on an issue-by-issue basis.
