Information Ethics, Globalization and Citizenship: Essays on Ideas to Praxis

The boundaries of citizenship have been blurred by global information systems--while the public and private spheres have been reshaped through globalization (and colonialism and capitalism).

This collection of new essays explores information and citizenship in the digital age from a range of perspectives, presenting cautionary tales along with possibilities for "decolonizing" digital information and literacy. Topics include Wikileaks and the dissolution of information; ethical issues for teachers, policy makers and librarians; and creating safe spaces through ethical librarianship.
