Free Speech in China?
The document discusses censorship methods in China, including legislative, political, psychological, and technological prior restraints to control freedom of speech. It censors communication, entertainment, news, religion, and foreign material to prevent anti-government ideas and keep China's history from the people. The effects are that the Chinese people know little of outside events and begin censoring themselves. The author believes censorship limits creativity and that a society forced to stop wrong actions may stop all actions.

shanghai cooperation organization
The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) was formed in 2001 between China, Russia, and Central Asian countries to promote cooperation in security, economic and cultural issues. It has 6 full members and 4 observer states. The organization has a council structure and focuses on counterterrorism, trade, energy cooperation, and cultural exchanges.

Forced migration
Forced migration has accompanied persecution, as well as war, throughout human history but has only become a topic of serious study and discussion relatively recently. This increased attention is the result of greater ease of travel, allowing displaced persons to flee to nations far removed from their homes, the creation of an international legal structure of human rights, and the realizations that the destabilizing effects of forced migration, especially in parts of Africa, the Middle East, south and central Asia, ripple out well beyond the immediate region.

Internet censorship
The document discusses internet censorship from multiple perspectives. It notes that while some level of censorship may be needed to prevent harm, over-censorship can limit progress by restricting the spread of new ideas. Examples are given of how censorship impacted Galileo's theory that the Earth revolves around the sun, and allowed Hitler to manipulate information. China is highlighted as one of the strictest censors of the internet, blocking topics like democracy. Overall the document questions the role of governments in censorship and whether it should be used to protect freedom of speech or restrict it.

Internet censorship and monitor's impact on free expression in china
The document discusses internet censorship and its impact on free expression in China. It begins with an introduction on how the internet has increased communication and civic participation globally but also led some countries to increase online monitoring. It then outlines three key arguments around why and how governments censor the internet, whether censorship limits free expression, and the relationship between free speech and social stability. The document is structured around discussions of politics, law, and an interdisciplinary analysis. It concludes that while order is important, China's government has overstepped boundaries with censorship and significantly depressed free expression.
US media system
The US has the heaviest television viewership in the world at 5 hours per day. It also has high radio listenership. The media system is mostly privately owned by wealthy individuals and large corporations. There is no direct government control of newspapers but the broadcast media is regulated by the FCC. Studies have shown political bias in mainstream media with Republican sources favored over Democrats and a lack of diversity among sources. Journalism education began at the University of Missouri in 1908.
21st century media
This document discusses 21st century media and the rise of internet-based communication platforms. It outlines key characteristics of modern media like social media, blogs, and mobile devices. It also examines strengths and weaknesses of internet media, how it has changed communication by empowering audiences, and the importance of citizen journalism. The document reviews legal frameworks around freedom of expression and Nepal's constitution. It discusses challenges like information overload and issues of accuracy. It concludes by examining ethics for online journalism.
Web and politics
The document discusses the role of the internet in politics. It outlines how politics was discussed privately before the internet, then how early online communities like The WELL allowed anonymous political discussions. Now, social media platforms like Twitter have become highly partisan political spaces, where politicians campaign and citizens share political views. While governments try to censor information, the internet also helps people access blocked content and gives more voice to politically incorrect opinions. Studies show social networks have made people feel more engaged in politics and empowered activists.
Pornography and Censorship
Pornography refers to the depiction of erotic behavior intended to cause sexual excitement. It has existed in various media such as books, photos, and films. Before the internet, pornography was distributed through means like bulletin board systems with adult files available without age verification. The introduction of the internet in the 1990s led to the widespread availability of online pornography. However, this also raised legal issues around depictions of child pornography and obscenity. Countries have different laws governing pornography. In the Philippines, the Anti-Pornography Law of 2009 defines and penalizes illegal pornography. Censorship involves suppressing speech or media deemed objectionable by governments or organizations. It is practiced for moral, political, religious or other
POLS 3620 Internet freedom
The document discusses internet freedom in Asia and Europe based on the Freedom House's Freedom on the Net 2012 report. It finds that many authoritarian states have taken measures to restrict online speech, while recent developments see increased citizen activism and court rulings defending internet freedom in democratic countries. However, countries also increasingly monitor internet usage and pass laws restricting free speech online, and China has become a model for authoritarian control and censorship of social media.
Internet freedom
Freedom House's Freedom on the Net 2012 report examines internet freedom in various countries. It assesses obstacles to access, limits on online content, and violations of user rights. Countries are given scores from 0-100, with 0 being most free and 100 being least free. The report found that authoritarian states are increasingly passing laws to monitor users and restrict free speech online, while surveillance is growing with few limits. Even democracies are becoming more intrusive. China in particular aggressively censors the internet and requires real-name registration, becoming a model for other authoritarian regimes to control online information.
Internet Freedom HKBU, Contemporary Europe and Asia 2012, POLS 3620
Freedom House's Freedom on the Net 2012 report examines internet freedom in various countries. It assesses obstacles to access, limits on online content, and violations of user rights. Countries are rated on a scale from 0-100, with 0 being most free and 100 being least free. The report found that authoritarian states increasingly filter, monitor, and restrict online speech, while some democracies also expand surveillance with few checks. New laws in countries like Malaysia and Thailand restrict free speech and lead to arrests. China tightly controls social media through censorship and monitoring according to Communist Party directives.
East of Eden - online life beyond the Great Firewall
This document provides an overview of internet regulation and censorship in China. It discusses how the Chinese government controls and monitors the internet through mechanisms like the Great Firewall and by requiring service providers to comply with censorship directives. It also notes that censorship aims to control media, prohibit mass organization, protect senior leaders from scrutiny, and protect domestic markets. The document then gives examples of some major Chinese internet companies and platforms and provides sources for further information.
Internet censorship
The document discusses internet censorship in several countries. It provides details on how China has the Great Firewall that blocks outside content and the Golden Shield that blocks domestic content. Citizens who speak out against censorship can disappear. North Korea also heavily censors the internet, restricting access to the political elite and allowing only government propaganda. While Russia's censorship is less extensive than China and North Korea, it is working to strengthen controls over internet information. The US engages in some censorship and increased surveillance of the internet compared to other western nations.
Censorship
This document discusses media censorship and its various forms. It defines censorship as the suppression of speech, information, or other media that is deemed objectionable or sensitive. Censorship is implemented to protect against hate, violence, and offense, as well as to shield children from inappropriate content. Major platforms of censorship include the internet, films, books, newspapers, radio, magazines, and television. Each country has its own laws around internet and media censorship, with some nations imposing stricter controls than others. Censorship is imposed by governments, leaders, parents, military officials, and business figures. While censorship aims to promote certain values, it can also limit free expression and learning, and be misused for political suppression.
CLBR: Reporters Without Borders Show Notes

RSF works to protect journalists and advocate for open access to information worldwide.
Mdia5000 presentation
Media censorship can take various forms such as withholding or banning information to maintain social stability. While censorship aims to filter out unnecessary information, some argue it limits freedom of speech and transparency. Countries differ in what content they censor such as pornography, hate speech, and political discourse. Proponents of censorship believe it prevents harm, while critics argue it infringes on civil liberties. There are no simple answers around the appropriate scope and practice of media censorship.

Mdia5000 presentation
Media censorship can be used to filter out unnecessary information and maintain societal stability, though it may infringe on freedom of speech. Countries differ in what content they censor, with pornography and material promoting hatred being commonly restricted. Political censorship is more common in one-party states. While censorship aims to prevent harm, it can also limit government transparency and intrude on privacy. There are arguments both for and against censorship, and finding the right approach is complex with reasonable perspectives on both sides.

150410 Tufts Fletcher School Can US and Russia be friends
The document discusses views and opinions of Russians on various political topics based on a presentation given in the United States in 2015. It summarizes that most Russians do not believe Russia has a functioning democracy and have little trust in their government, seeing it as acting in its own interests rather than the people's. Additionally, Russians hold mixed views of the United States and their relationship, and generally support Putin's actions in Ukraine while believing Western countries have long acted as warmongers against Russia. The document ends by calling for abandoning attempts to influence Russia and instead focusing on long-term mutual interests and consistency between Western words and actions.
