Free Speech and Non-State Censors
Authors: Messina J.P. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
“Free Speech and Non-State Censors” marks the book’s substantive introduction. It begins by describing the phenomenon of private censorship and the crisis of free speech that many believe it generates. It then offers a conceptual analysis of censorship, which shows that talk of censorship by non-state agents need not involve any conceptual confusion. Next, the chapter turns to offering a pluralist account of the harms and wrongs of censorship, which vindicates the idea that private censorship can compromise our information environment. Having established that contemporary concerns about the impact of private power on our atmosphere for speech and discussion are well founded, the chapter turns to arguing that such private power demands a separate treatment from state censorship. The chapter concludes by laying out the plan for the rest of the book.
Genealogy Essay I
Authors: Welshon Rex 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The section-by-section part of Chapter 3 describes the slave revolt in morality and ressentiment. The slave revolt names a set of changes to evaluative practices that seeped through societies when monotheistic religions emerged as social movements. These changes became sedimented in morality because the ubiquity of ressentiment gave them a psychological medium in which to grow. The discussion part of Chapter 3 addresses four issues. First, Nietzsche uses ‘morality’ in different ways and both endorses and condemns it. This apparent equivocation can be eased. Second, we describe his tactic of juxtaposing species of morality and moral psychology. Third, his naturalized drive/affect moral psychology is introduced. One problem with this moral psychology is that Nietzsche appears to think that human drives and affects can replace what persons do. This is indeed an implication, but, properly understood, it is not as troubling as sometimes alleged.
Uganda
Authors: Cohen Meghan Sobel , Hopkinson Karen McIntyre 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Chapter 3 examines factors influencing media systems in Uganda. Data show that while some differences exist between outsider and insider perceptions of press freedom in Uganda, overall, journalists largely agree with the international perception that they are restricted and that the situation is worsening the longer President Yoweri Museveni remains in power. Not only did journalists in Uganda perceive their press freedom to be lower than journalists in their neighbouring countries, they also had a more pessimistic outlook. Despite a sustained period of peace after conflict with the Lord’s Resistance Army in the northern part of the country, press freedom is not increasing as time passes. Government interference, some of which stems from the conflict and some of which is new, remains pervasive. Worn down by government intimidation and repressive laws, coupled with low pay and lack of necessary equipment, some journalists turn to unethical behaviour, such as acting as spies in the newsroom.
Kenya
Authors: Cohen Meghan Sobel , Hopkinson Karen McIntyre 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Just because a nation regularly holds elections does not mean the path to democratization—and media freedom—is smooth. Chapter 4 shows that external measures indicate that Kenya has more press freedom than neighbouring Uganda and Rwanda, and journalists in the country perceive that to be true and have an optimistic outlook. However, data show ups and downs of media freedom that have mirrored varying political administrations and events, including spurts of post-election violence, largely due to politicians being deeply entangled with the news media. Despite the challenges, the nation has more press freedom than its neighbours, which journalists attribute to the vast international connections that the country and its leaders have, as well as an empowered civil society, which stems from both a space for dissent given by public officials as well as the culture and spirit of Kenyans which has promoted the growth of human rights, including media freedoms.
Conclusion
Authors: Cohen Meghan Sobel , Hopkinson Karen McIntyre 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Chapter 6 summarizes our previous discussions of press freedom landscapes in Rwanda, Uganda, and Kenya, showing how a nation’s political and cultural intricacies complicate traditional media systems frameworks and notions of press freedom. Media ecosystems are not one-size-fits-all; thus, theories must account for forward progress and democracy-building, but also transitions and backsliding. The field needs to revisit the applicability of existing frameworks, and in doing so, consider an additional set of factors to add nuance to understandings of media systems from a more historically and contextually informed view: distance from conflict, political benchmarks, international linkages, and the strength of a country’s civil society. These factors build on existing models and have been shown to influence media systems in East Africa; other characteristics surely impact these and other media systems; thus, considering each country’s individual context when evaluating press freedom and media systems is crucial.
Introduction
Authors: Bradford Anu 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The Introduction sets the stage by laying out the context and the main themes of the book. It explains why the digital economy has become a contested battlefield where regulators around the world are seeking to rein in tech companies that exert outsized influence over societies and lives of individuals. It introduces the concept of “digital empire” and explains why the United States, China, and the European Union can be viewed as the leading jurisdictions shaping the global digital economy. Each digital empire has its own values that explains the way it governs the digital economy, steering the US towards a market-driven regulatory model, China towards a state-driven regulatory model, and the EU towards a rights-driven regulatory model. The introduction also describes how the digital world is characterized by a two-level battle, with governments simultaneously fighting a horizontal battle among themselves and a vertical battle vis-a-vis tech companies. It also explains the main stakes and dynamics characterizing these battles.
The European Rights-Driven Regulatory Model
Authors: Bradford Anu 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Chapter 3 brings into view the third major model of digital regulation—the European rights-driven model. The chapter illustrates how the EU asserts its regulatory power in the name of upholding individual and collective rights, protecting democratic values, and ushering in a fair and human-centric digital society. To further these goals, the EU model distributes power away from large tech companies to smaller firms, internet users, and platform workers. The EU often refers to the digital society of rights and values, which, it claims, cannot be realized under the market-based model that permits the exploitation of personal data by tech companies, nor under the state-centric model that permits censorship and surveillance by governments. The EU further engrains those rights and values in binding regulatory instruments, reflecting its belief that digital transformation needs to be firmly anchored in the rule of law and democratic institutions. Despite the many benefits associated with the EU’s regulatory model, the chapter also addresses its shortcomings, including the common criticism that extensive regulation impedes innovation, thereby explaining the EU’s inability to date to produce tech companies akin to those that have emerged and thrived under American and Chinese regulatory models.
Between Freedom and Control
Authors: Bradford Anu 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Chapter 4 specifically examines how American and Chinese tech companies straddle between the market-driven and state-driven regulatory models as they fight vertical battles against the US and Chinese governments, facing increasingly irresolvable regulatory dilemmas. At worst, tech companies are forced to choose which of the models they comply with—while knowing that their compliance with one regulatory model is deemed to violate another. For example, a Chinese tech company listed in the US stock exchange cannot at the same time obey the US government’s request to disclose certain data and the Chinese government’s request not to disclose that same data. Similarly, US tech companies operating in China must acquiesce to the Chinese government’s demands to censor online content, which puts them directly at odds with the American regulatory model emphasizing free speech, and exposes them to criticism among US lawmakers, their US-based customers, and their own employees. These conflicts have grave implications for the companies involved but also for the broader digital economy, as they risk partially decoupling the leading tech ecosystems.
Filial Care
Authors: Li Chenyang 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter examines the evolution of the Confucian concept of xiao through Kongzi, Mengzi, and Xunzi. It makes the case that xiao should be understood as filial care, which encompasses the three components of material and physical assistance, respect, and moral vigilance. In accordance with Xunzi’s justification, moral care should always be an essential part of filial care as is in any intimate human relationship. Classical thinkers have laid the groundwork for us to construe the Confucian philosophy of xiao as a holistic filial philosophy of material care, psychological care, and moral care. On such a basis, it can be further developed in these three areas to meet contemporary needs.
Virtuous Life and Longevity
Authors: Li Chenyang 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter revisits the often neglected ideal of longevity in the Confucian conception of the good life. It investigates the link between the Confucian ideal of cultivating virtue and longevity. The Confucian virtuous life is founded on the ideal of personal harmony, rooted in the metaphysical belief of the harmonious circulation of qi in the person and one’s environment. In that connection Confucianism promotes a holistic life, which tends to lead toward longevity. Thus understood, the Confucian ideal of longevity is healthy and virtuous longevity. These Confucian ideas remain relevant to modern societies where improved public health is closely correlated with increases in life expectancy.
Freedom through Choosing
Authors: Li Chenyang 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter argues that Confucianism has resources for constructing its own conception of freedom and that there is no need to transplant a Western notion of “free will” for such a purpose. It constructs a conception of Confucian freedom largely along the lines of Charles Taylor’s “exercise concept.” Accordingly, a person is free only to the extent that she has effectively determined herself and the shape of her life. Thus understood, Confucian freedom is to be realized by developing personal competency for making effective choices and by creating societal conditions to achieve meaningfully chosen goals. Specifically, it is to be realized in the process of choosing the good (zeshan 擇善). As such, Confucian freedom is both liberating and fulfilling.
American Poly
Authors: Gleason Christopher M. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This book provides a narrative of history of polyamory over the past century. It uses personal journals, underground newsletters, and other countercultural publications to trace the evolution of polyamorous thought and practice, setting it within the broader context of American culture. It reconstructs polyamory’s intellectual foundations, highlighting its unique blend of conservative political thought and countercultural spiritualism. It argues that while polyamory has its early foundations in the Roaring Twenties among bohemians, its core concepts were a product of the religious and sexual experimentation of 1960s counterculture. During that time practitioners of emerging New Religious movements drew from diverse sources including libertarianism, science fiction, neo-Paganism, pantheism, and goddess worship to create a new sexual ethics to replace the Judeo-Christian morality they rejected. Polyamory emerged as a coherent concept in the 1980s as these advocates embraced relational commitment while continuing to reject monogamy. They organized, held conferences, and created a national network. Throughout the 1990s, polyamorists utilized the internet to spread their ideas. When they did this, younger polyamorists took up their ideas, leaving behind their previous religious significance. It argues that the result was many different forms of polyamory proliferating within the American mainstream.
Technologies

Abstract
Chapter 5 argues that the internet drove polyamory’s growth throughout the 1990s. It highlights how as polyamory co-evolved alongside the internet and how the internet connected more polyamorists than the Loving More coalition had been able. While mainstream media outlets refused to give polyamory positive coverage, internet communities, such as the Well and USENET, connected polyamorists around the nation, allowing polyamorous concepts to proliferate. The chapter also demonstrates how the internet provided new spaces for polyamorists critical of the Loving More coalition’s focus on counterculture spiritualism and its prohibitions against casual sex. It argues that the internet functioned as a double-edged sword, perpetuating polyamorous notions on a large scale while undermining the unity that earlier leading polyamorist activist had fought to establish.
Polyamories
Authors: Gleason Christopher M. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Chapter 6 argues that younger polyamorists continuing to utilize new and innovative technologies made polyamory popular while fracturing it. From podcasts to webisodes, young polyamorists disseminated increasingly nuanced forms of polyamory throughout the mainstream. These new polyamorists capitalized on the radical change in public opinion regarding queer sexuality in general. In doing so, they borrowed the terminology of their activist forebearers while leaving behind much of early polyamory’s spiritualist heritage and excessive moralizing. The result was a proliferation of many different manifestations of ethical non-monogamy, each co-existing under the larger umbrella of polyamory. Their success eventually attracted the attention of religious conservatives who attacked polyamory as a threat to the moral order of America.
Introduction
Authors: Garrigós Cristina , Ahonen Marika 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The introduction by the editors explores the genre of the musical memoir from a gender perspective by emphasizing an intersectional understanding of the topic. According to Mary Karr, “Memoir done right is an art, a made thing. It’s not just raw reportage flung splat on the page. Most morally ominous: From the second you choose one event over another, you’re shaping the past meaning” (The Art of Memoir, xvii). In this sense, the introduction explores the common characteristics of these memoirs and the different strategies that the authors use to tell their stories to the audience. This implies a new perspective toward the understanding of the history of punk/rock, and also of the time when these books are published. For instance, most of the authors whose memoirs are studied are mature women who developed their careers from the 1970s on. Thus, by exploring these memories, one also gets an understanding of the development of rock music from the perspective of women and the society where they grew up as women and artists.
Childhood Trauma and the Musical In-Between in Memoirs by Astrid Swan and Dory Previn
Authors: Joutseno Astrid 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter approaches My Last Book (Viimeinen kirjani: kirjoituksia elämästä, 2019) by the Finnish songwriter and author of this essay, Astrid Swan/Joutseno, as well as American songwriter Dory Previn’s (1925–2012) Midnight Baby: An Autobiography (1976). The chapter asks how childhood trauma narratives can be interpreted in the light of artist development and craft. It examines the relationship between childhood trauma narratives and the lack of music-related stories by introducing a novel concept, the musical in-between, deriving from Hanna Meretoja (2018). By contrasting writers from different times, it shows that the traditions of songwriting and life-writing share a lengthy cross-cultural history.
The Monster in the House
Authors: Garrigós Cristina 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Gender-based violence is a key concern for the Chicana punk musician. Alice Bag’s memoir, Violence Girl: East L.A. Rage to Hollywood Stage. A Chicana Punk Story (2011), addresses this issue by describing her father’s violent nature and how he beat her mother in front of the young Alicia, who was powerless to prevent it. Even though her father was never aggressive with her, as she explains in her writing, the violence that she witnessed at home became an important part of her growing up, and she channeled it through the ethos of punk. This chapter discusses how, by writing her memoir, Bag explores gender-based domestic violence; it reflects on the effect that this violence had on her life as a woman and artist, and on the development of her identity as Chicana, punk musician, and feminist.
Memory and Writing in Kim Gordon’s Girl in a Band
Authors: Sainz Ángel Chaparro 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
In “Memory and Writing in Kim Gordon’s Girl in a Band,” Ángel Chaparro Sainz deploys a combined critical approach in order to observe the associations and interrelations between gender, music, and identity in Kim Gordon’s autobiography. The author explores how Gordon’s identity is investigated in an autobiography in which her awareness of herself as a musician interacts with her being a woman, a mother, and a band member. In the process of writing it, Kim Gordon’s journey into her personal memory reveals a complex process in which her developing identity takes shape. Her memoir is understood as a multilayered examination of identity that takes place in a liminal space of transition, where identity is approached not as something established and narrated, but as a source for self-revelation, a quest for meaning, and the promise of definition.
Memory, Truth, and Narrative Ethics in Christina Rosenvinge’s Debut
Authors: Ahonen Marika 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter examines the themes of memory, truth, and narrative ethics in Spanish singer-songwriter Christina Rosenvinge’s memoir Debut: Cuadernos y canciones (2019). Having worked in the field since the 1980s, Rosenvinge has a lengthy history in music. Her parents moved to Spain from Denmark in the 1950s; she has also lived in New York, recorded albums in English, and toured extensively in Latin America. In Rosenvinge’s book, memories are inextricably associated with musical creation, making the two inseparable from one another. Keeping narrative ethics in mind, the focus of this chapter is on truth as it connects with remembering, a question that is ultimately linked to issues of survival, and also to ethics. This article examines Rosenvinge’s text and considers the ethical possibilities of storytelling in her memoir.
“Mothers aren’t sexy,” “What is that you’re wearing?,” “What’s it like to be in an all-girl band?”
Authors: Heisler Wayne 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Pat Benatar, Cyndi Lauper, and Kathy Valentine (of the Go-Go’s) achieved artistic and commercial success within the corporate music industry of the 1980s. Personal and musical differences notwithstanding, common threads in their respective memoirs include consciousness of gender inequity and feminism, and parallel experiences of misogyny and sexism in the industry. Systemic sexism impacted their visual images; it also affected their music as regards genre branding, promotion, and barriers to songwriting, arranging, and/or production. Benatar’s, Lauper’s, and Valentine’s stories offer perspectives for understanding their images and music that are largely absent from pedigreed historical narratives of popular music. Their perspectives are especially telling from the mid-1980s forward, the time of their alleged artistic and commercial obsolescence, which owed in part to gatekeepers to women’s agency in the industry.
The Punk, the Rebel, and the Cowboy
Authors: McCarthy Amy 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
In Patti Smith’s memoirs, the cowboy figure first appears in Just Kids (2010). In M Train (2015), the cowboy manifests as a recurring character and holds multiple identities. As the memoirs progress, the cowboy’s figure adapts and metamorphoses to represent Smith’s imagination and different aspects of her identity. This chapter argues that Smith takes a conservative, masculine figure and usurps his mythical identity. The cowboy acts as a vessel for Smith to transcend consciousness. The cowboy represents the artist. Smith takes fragments of the cowboy’s identity and creates a new version that subverts patriarchal heteronormativity. Through art, Smith claims authority in male-dominated spaces therefore queers a masculine space. By using the existing masculine culture surrounding the cowboy, Smith tears it up and reattaches it to create a portal to her psyche.
Cosey Fanni Tutti, Age and Place
Authors: Gardner Abigail 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter focuses on Cosey Fanni Tutti’s 2017 memoir, Art, Sex, Music, in relation to the importance of place in aging and memoir, specifically with regard to transgression and being “difficult.” It argues that the medium/place, or format, of a written memoir combined with the temporal/place, or timing, of the vantage point of an older literary voice does something to the status of the transgressive performances of her youth. There is a change in register enabled by reflection and distance that allows for the processing of such transgressions. In parallel to this process, there is a continuing tension that cannot be wholly suppressed. Tutti’s memoir goes some way to valorizing a non-phallocentric place, by writing into popular cultural history the “fanni” of the opera. This “fanni” is about feminine power in relation to sex, sound, and the body now made legible through twenty-first-century memoir.
Introduction
Authors: Cash Jordan T. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The introduction introduces the central argument that the constitutional logic of the presidency can best be understood by examining presidents who were unelected, faced divided government, and were opposed by factions of their own political parties. This chapter positions the argument as a response to those scholars who have dismissed the formal powers of the presidency or who see the presidency’s capacity for robust or unilateral actions as emerging from sources outside the Constitution. These studies neglect the importance of a strong executive in the constitutional system, and as a result underestimate how the Constitution acts as the foundational source of authority for all presidents.
