Synopsis

"Freedom Of Information" explores the vital role of public access laws in a democracy, focusing on government transparency and accountability. It highlights how these laws empower informed citizenship by allowing individuals to scrutinize government actions. The book argues that effective Freedom of Information (FOI) laws are fundamental to a healthy democracy, reducing corruption and enabling informed decision-making. For example, without access to information, corruption can increase exponentially. The book examines the history and evolution of FOI laws, tracing their development from the post-World War II era to the present day, with a focus on the US Freedom of Information Act of 1966. It then delves into the practical aspects of requesting government records, navigating bureaucratic hurdles, and understanding exemptions. Case studies illustrate the successes and failures of FOI laws in practice, showing how they've been used to uncover wrongdoing and influence policy. The book adopts a pragmatic and analytical approach, presenting information in plain language suitable for a broad audience. It progresses logically, starting with core concepts, then moving to practical applications and recommendations for strengthening transparency mechanisms. This makes it valuable for students, journalists, policymakers, and engaged citizens interested in understanding their rights to access government information.

    Think today's anti-abortion ideas are rooted in religious prohibitions or arguments about where life begins? Wrong: today's anti-abortion movements is largely financed and planned by far-right extremists. Many of them are avowedly fascist and white supremacist, afraid of a "great replacement" of the world's white population by other races, who are working hard to reshape governments and policies across Europe, North America, and around the world. Much of this far-right organizing and funding network, however, has been overlooked by today's feminist and left movements. 
     
     
     
    As investigative journalist Sian Norris uncovers here, it is through attacking abortion rights that fascist ideas from the dark web, incel chat boards, and fringe organizations comes to enter mainstream debate—and to then shape governmental policy across Europe, from authoritarian regimes like Hungary's to liberal democracies like Britain. As Norris goes undercover at anti-abortion activist meetings, and pieces together the money trail linking American think tanks to far-right fascist groups, she maps out the pipeline by which fascism has become respectable across the Global North by taking away women's reproductive rights and autonomy.

    Have you ever had the experience of being manipulated by a person to such an extent that you felt something was wrong with your perception? That you finally started to doubt your perceptive faculty, even your mental health? That you began to lose confidence in your senses because you were regularly told that you were perceiving reality incorrectly? You are not alone in this: this common phenomenon is called gaslighting, and it is a subtle yet serious form of psychological violence that can have lasting effects on the victim's self-esteem.

    "It never happened that way."
    "You're overreacting."
    "You're crazy. You should get help."
    
    In this guidebook, you'll learn not only what exactly gaslighting actually is and how this mechanism works, but also how you can free yourself - and others - from the manipulation trap and ultimately emerge stronger from this crisis.
