Culture Inc. The Corporate Takeover of Public Expression Schiller, Herbert I. Publisher:  Oxford, New York, USA Year Published:  1989   Pages:  201pp   ISBN:  0-19-505005-3 Library of Congress Number:  P.95.82.U6S34   Dewey:  302.2 Resource Type:  Book Schiller defends democratic expression and free access to information while demonstrating the ways in which public expression, public space, and public access to information are becoming increasingly limited and controlled. Abstract:  Herbert Schiller defends democratic expression and free access to information while demonstrating the ways in which public expression, public space, and public access to information are becoming increasingly limited and controlled. He presents the case that concentrated power over the private economy is increasingly being translated into domination over every aspect of social and cultural life. Over the past 50 years, the private corporate sector in America has steadily widened its economic, political, and cultural role and Schiller finds the effects alarming. Corporate control of culture, for instance, leads to manipulation of public consciousness as well as resulting in an insidious form of censorship.
