The 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre occurred after weeks of student-led demonstrations in Beijing calling for democracy, free speech, and corruption. The Chinese government's decision to use military force against the protesters led to hundreds or thousands of deaths. Key events included Hu Yaobang's death sparking the initial protests, hunger strikes by students, Zhao Ziyang's visit and dismissal, the declaration of martial law, and the military's crackdown on June 3-4. Ultimately, Deng Xiaoping ordered the military action to crush the protest movement and ensure the Communist Party's control was not threatened.Communist party of china, its structure and how does it work

This restructuring of agriculture greatly increased food production. Deng also focused on modernizing industry, science, technology, and education to transform China's economy and catch up to more advanced nations.

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 and CensorshipJemFlorece
?
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 otherPOLS 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 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.Internet freedom

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.East of Eden - online life beyond the Great Firewall

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

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.Mdia5000 presentation

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.Is your mind without fear and head held

The document discusses various phobias that Indian politicians seem to be suffering from, such as comment-o-phobia, cartoon-o-phobia, and tweet-o-phobia, brought on by citizens' use of social media to criticize them. It provides examples of citizens who have faced legal consequences like arrests for their online comments and cartoons about politicians. While laws aim to curb hate speech and defamation, the broad criteria of the IT Act allow harassment of citizens for expressing opinions online. The document concludes by quoting Tagore's call for a nation with freedom of thought and expression.Recently uploaded (20)
