Bei MediaBerkman gibt es den Mitschnitt eines Vortrages von Antony Loewenstein über „The Blogging Revolution: Going Online in Repressive Regimes“ zum Download.
In 2007, Australian journalist, author and blogger Antony Loewenstein traveled to Egypt, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Cuba and China to investigate how the net was challenging authoritarian regimes, the role of Western multinationals such as Google in the assistance of web filtering and how misinformed we are in the West towards states considered “enemies” or “allies”. He discusses his acclaimed new book, The Blogging Revolution.
Das wird auch ein Thema auf der kommenden „re:publica’09 – Shift happens“ sein.
