Censorship, Digital Media and the Global Crackdown on Freedom of
Expression explores the rising global phenomenon of censorship across
various media platforms, in schools, universities, and public spaces.
It documents physical assaults, legal restrictions, and the exclusion
of critical topics from public discourse. This volume analyzes
contemporary censorship methods, emphasizing the anti-democratic
implications and the threat to civil society, human rights, and global
democracy. It delves into the dangerous consequences of suppressing
dialogue, information dissemination, and educational materials,
providing insight into the challenges faced by critical media literacy
and activists. The book advocates for policy alternatives, including
economic restructuring of media, global agreements on freedom of the
press, and educational strategies to preserve global freedom of
expression.
