The link between liberty and knowledge is neither static nor simple. Transforming dynamics of knowledge, the fragility of expertise and diversifying media present unique challenges to contemporary societies and citizens. This book examines the possibilities of knowledge as a weapon of the weak and the implications for democracy and freedom.
