This report traces how the technological revolution of the past few decades has created a new corporate world of Internet-based companies that have become the new gatekeepers of information. It offers recommendations for addressing the role of the new information gatekeepers in the age of the Internet.

This volume considers the phenomenon and myth of authoritarian modernization. The authors focus on how Moscow and Beijing are attempting to meet an increasingly complex range of political, economic, and foreign policy tasks. They examine the contrasting forms of authoritarian rule in Russia and China, and consider whether authoritarianism in general is sustainable in a post-modern century.
