Description
Most Americans tend to view censorship as a represssive aspect of other societies or historical eras, one that touches on our lives only in relation to national security or certain Cold War considerations. In this provocative history of censorship, Sue Curry Jansen challenges conventional thought with a bold new view: that censorship, an embodiment of the relationship between power and knowledge, is as much a feature of liberal, market societies as it is of totalitarianisms.
