The Free Expression Policy Project

GENERAL

Research Abstract
The Free Expression Policy Project

The Free Expression Policy Project (FEPP), founded in 2000, provides research and advocacy on free speech, copyright, and media democracy issues. In May 2004, FEPP became part of the Democracy Program at the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law.

FEPP's primary areas of inquiry are:

  • Restrictions on publicly funded expression - in libraries, museums, schools, universities, and arts and humanities agencies;
  • Internet filters, rating systems, and other measures that restrict access to information and ideas in the digital age;
  • Restrictive copyright laws, digital rights management, and other imbalances in the "intellectual property" system;
  • Mass media consolidation, public access to the airwaves, and other issues of media democracy;
  • Censorship designed to "shield" adolescents and children from controversial art, information, and ideas. (From About FEPP)

The FEPP website offers helpful resources in the form of commentaries, court and agency briefs, fact sheets, news briefs, policy reports, book reviews and white papers.
