Book Description
Media independence is central to the organization, make-up, working practices and output of media systems across the globe. Often stemming from western notions of individual and political freedoms, independence has informed the development of media across a range of platforms: from the freedom of the press as the "fourth estate" and the rise of Hollywood’s Independent studios and Independent television in Britain, through to the importance of "Indy" labels in music and gaming and the increasing importance of independence of voice in citizen journalism. Media independence for many, therefore, has come to mean working with freedom: from state control or interference, from monopoly, from market forces, as well as freedom to report, comment, create and document without fear of persecution. However, far from a stable concept that informs all media systems, the notion of media independence has long been contested, forming a crucial tension point in the regulation, shape, size and role of the media around the globe. Contributors including David Hesmondhalgh, Gholam Khiabany, José van Dijck, Hector Postigo, Anthony Fung, Stuart Allan and Geoff King demonstrate how the notion of independence has remained paramount, but contested, in ideals of what the media is for, how it should be regulated, what it should produce and what working within it should be like. They address questions of economics, labor relations, production cultures, ideologies and social functions.

Book Description
"Freedom" is a term that is closely associated with the United States of America, and it is often used to describe the values and principles that underlie American society and culture. There are many different aspects of "freedom" in the American context, including: Political freedom: The United States was founded on the principles of democracy and individual rights, and the American system of government is designed to ensure that citizens have a voice in the political process and are able to exercise their rights without fear of persecution or oppression. Economic freedom: The United States is also known for its commitment to free-market capitalism, which is based on the idea that individuals should be free to pursue their own economic interests without interference from the government or other outside forces. Religious freedom: The United States has a long history of religious diversity and tolerance, and the First Amendment to the Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of religion, ensuring that citizens are able to practice their faith without fear of persecution. Freedom of speech and expression: The United States also places a high value on freedom of speech and expression, and the First Amendment guarantees the right to free speech and the press, even if those views are unpopular or controversial. Personal freedom: The United States also values personal freedom and autonomy, and citizens are generally free to make their own choices about their lives, including decisions about their careers, families, and personal relationships. "freedom" is a deeply ingrained value in American culture, and it is often used as a shorthand for the many different rights and freedoms that Americans enjoy. While there are certainly debates and disagreements about the extent and nature of those freedoms, the concept of "freedom" remains a defining feature of American society and culture.

Book Description
Winner of the Francis Parkman Prize, Society of American Historians “A tour de force. . . . No one has ever written a book on the Declaration quite like this one.”—Gordon Wood, New York Review of Books Featured on the front page of the New York Times, Our Declaration is already regarded as a seminal work that reinterprets the promise of American democracy through our founding text. Combining a personal account of teaching the Declaration with a vivid evocation of the colonial world between 1774 and 1777, Allen, a political philosopher renowned for her work on justice and citizenship reveals our nation’s founding text to be an animating force that not only changed the world more than two-hundred years ago, but also still can. Challenging conventional wisdom, she boldly makes the case that the Declaration is a document as much about political equality as about individual liberty. Beautifully illustrated throughout, Our Declaration is an “uncommonly elegant, incisive, and often poetic primer on America’s cardinal text” (David M. Kennedy).

Book Description
In 1877, among the red rocks of Southern Utah, the signers of the Declaration of Independence twice visited a sleeping Apostle of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Wilford Woodrugg recounted these vivid visions a number of times during his lif-- because they were more than forgettable dreams. The men gathered around him demanded action. They knew Woodruff had just helped inaugurate proxy temple ordinances for faithful family members who had died, and now they wanted those same ordinances -- they wanted spiritual freedom. But who were these men who came to Woodruff? Some stand like titans -- Franklin, m Jefferson, Hancock, John Adams, and Samuel Adams. Others are lesser known yet had a huge influence on the passage of the Declaration and on the founding of the United States of America. These noble men who came to Woodruff by night brought resounding justification to a church rejected by the nation; the founders of freedom were coming to the Mormons for what only those people could give them -- salvation. The requests in Woodruff's dreams wre quickly fulfilled, and each Signer of the Declaration of Independence had his temple work completed. -- Publisher's description.
