From Czarism and Bolshevism to the current postcommunist era, the media in Central Asia has been tightly constrained. Though the governments in the region assert that a free press is permitted to operate, research has shown this to be untrue. In all five former Soviet republics of Central Asia, the media has been controlled, suppressed, punished, and often outlawed. This enlightening collection of essays investigates the reasons why these countries have failed to develop independent and sustainable press systems. It documents the complex relationship between the press and governance, nationbuilding, national identity, and public policy. In this book, scholars explore the numerous and broadreaching implications of media control in a variety of contexts, touching on topics such as Internet regulation and censorship, press rights abuses, professional journalism standards and selfcensorship, media ownership, ethnic newspapers, blogging, Western broadcasting into the region, and coverage of terrorism.
