Explicit representations: approaches to censorship

Abstract

The censorship of moral, literary and artistic materials is an important aspect of information control. Systematic study involves the researcher in analysis of specific cases and situations, an exploration of relationships between law and literature, and an understanding of gender roles, the media, and the pornography industry. Important definitions need to be clarified and assumptions examined, making this domain both complex and rewarding for social information analysis.
