Freedom of Expression

There may be a perceived "American way" of doing or seeing things, but today's digital world allows kids to live outside of our culture while living in it. This essential volume communicates what the world view of freedom of expression is. Editor Alicia Cafferty Lerner has painstakingly tracked down several articles and essays that explain what this concept is in such places as Slovakia, Turkey, Russia, Kenya, China, and England. Forms of expression examined includes blogging, journalism, singing, drama, internet searching, and mural painting. Essay sources include Freemuse, Kuwait Times, and The Economist.
