He sued for libel in a British court. Dominic Burbidge explains. Canada champions tolerance abroad. But what about chez nous in Quebec? Charles Taylor asks what motivates practices of exclusion on the basis of religious identity and expression. Dominic Burbidge reports. Why ramp up internet surveillance in Nigeria? The Nigerian government is rumoured to have sealed a $40m dollar contract for internet surveillance technology. There is no clear justification for this “secret” deal, and no assurance that the technology would be used fairly, given Nigeria’s lack of established rights for citizen privacy. By Nwachukwu Egbunike and Dominic Burbidge. The bizarre story of how lippy librarians faced down a silly publisher A university librarian faced a lawsuit over a critical blog post about the publishing house Edwin Mellen Press but online solidarity won out. By Dominic Burbidge. Jesus Christ Superstar? Not in Rostov, Russia The Russian parliament’s vote in support of a declaration against acts offending religious sentiments is symptomatic of worrying trends, write Olga Shvarova and Dominic Burbidge. “If you rattle a snake…” The Kenyan government bites its media In 2006 the Kenyan police violently raided the offices and printing press of the Standard Group media organisation. What was the government afraid of seeing reported? Dominic Burbidge explores a revealing case. Free speech as seen by a believer in an Abrahamic religion Islam, Christianity and Judaism are often accused of wanting to restrict free speech. Dominic Burbidge suggests a radically different perspective, from inside the thought-system of the Abrahamic faiths. Open access academic journals: go for gold? The world of academic publishing stands at a crossroads with public institutions demanding open access to publicly funded research. Dominic Burbidge explores the difficulties that stand in the way. Free but not able? Literacy is the fundamental building block for any society of free speech, evidenced not just in grand statistics but in the lives of those most in need. Dominic Burbidge reports. How Ushahidi maps the voices of those in need Dominic Burbidge discusses how Ushahidi’s transformative crowdsourcing techniques have alleviated crises in Kenya and beyond. Zambia’s secret freedom of information bill If a decade of stalled attempts to enact Zambia’s Freedom of Information bill seems comical, there is underlying tragedy in how politicians have fallen short of their free speech rhetoric, writes Dominic Burbidge. How ‘brown envelope journalism’ holds back sub-Saharan Africa Dominic Burbidge explores the corrupt links between political elites and mainstream media that suffocate genuine democratic debate in Africa. キリスト教徒は職場で十字架を着用できるでしょうか？ 二人のキリスト教徒の女性が職場で十字架を着用するためヨーロッパ人権裁判所で戦っていると、Dominic Burbridgeが伝えます。
