Lee Bollinger is one of our foremost experts on the First Amendment. In this sweeping account, he explores the troubled history of a free press in America. Bollinger shows how the idea of press freedom has evolved over time, in response to social, political, technological, and legal changes. It was not until the twentieth century that freedom of the press came to be understood as guaranteeing an "uninhibited, robust and wide-open" public discourse. But even then, government continually tried to erect barriers. Bollinger sheds light on this history and explores the future of the press in our globalized, internet-dominated era.

As the debate over the right to obtain an abortion in the United States rages on, 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of the landmark decision in Roe v. Wade - overturned, of course, by the Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health in 2022. This book brings together some of the nation's leading experts in constitutional law, history, gender studies, and reproductive rights to examine the decisions in Dobbs and Roe, the Court's performance, and how this sets the stage for the decisions to come, not only on abortion. This is a critical moment in which to reflect on the past, present, and future of abortion regulations and legislation in the U.S.

Lee C. Bollinger and Geoffrey R. Stone, together with an eminent collection of contributors, explore the various dimensions of the problems of "bad" speech-hate speech, disinformation and propaganda campaigns, and incitement of violence-on the internet, and in particular speech on social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, in the American context and through the lens of the First Amendment. Bollinger and Stone argue that in determining a path forward, it is important to remember that the last time American society encountered major new communications technology-television and radio-the government established a federal agency to provide oversight and to issue regulations to protect and promote 'the public interest.' Featuring a variety of perspectives from some of America's leading experts on this hotly contested issue, this volume offers new insights and provides recommendations for the future of free speech in the social media era.

Edward Snowden's release of classified NSA documents exposed the widespread government practice of mass surveillance in a democratic society. The publication of these documents, facilitated by three journalists, as well as efforts to criminalize the act of being a whistleblower or source, signaled a new era in the coverage of national security reporting. The contributors to Journalism After Snowden analyze the implications of the Snowden affair for journalism and the future role of the profession as a watchdog for the public good. Integrating discussions of media, law, surveillance, technology, and national security, the book offers a timely and much-needed assessment of the promises and perils for journalism in the digital age. Journalism After Snowden is an essential read for citizens, journalists, and academics in search of perspective on the need for and threats to investigative journalism in an age of heightened surveillance. The book features contributions from key players in the initial reporting of the NSA files, including former editor-in-chief of The Guardian, Alan Rusbridger; ex-New York Times executive editor Jill Abramson; legal scholar and journalist Glenn Greenwald; and Edward Snowden. Other contributors include dean of Columbia Graduate School of Journalism Steve Coll, Internet and society scholar Clay Shirky, legal scholar Cass Sunstein, and journalist Julia Angwin. Topics discussed include the protection of sources, digital security practices, the legal rights of journalists, access to classified data, interpreting journalistic privilege in the digital age, and understanding the impact of the Internet and telecommunications policy on journalism. The anthology's interdisciplinary nature provides a comprehensive overview and understanding of how society can protect the press and ensure the free flow of information.
