The Changing Nature of Censorship

Censorship is flourishing in the information age.

This is well documented in countries like Pakistan, Russia, China and Hungary, where governments exercise control over the flow of information by various means. But insidious forms of censorship are also prevalent in Australia, and in many other democracies, evident in the business sector, the media, social media, academia and the arts.

In the next of our series of Big Ideas in the Pub, we discuss the ways in which private corporations and public institutions engage in the suppression of information and what we can do about it.

So, join us for a meal, and as always, stimulating conversation!
