<h3><strong>Public Service Through the Spoken Word (G-4)</strong></h3>
Description
An account of the resource
Radio Free Asia also has a website that serves as an alternative way of reaching its potential audience. This website offers enriched content and detailed coverage of all of the key issues ongoing in Vietnam, with a primary focus on democracy, civil society and human rights. Although Vietnam has one of the region’s highest Internet penetration growth rates, the nation blocks the Radio Free Asia website and thereby prevents its approximately 40 million Internet users from accessing a source of independent and vital information unless such users circumvent the censorship by using secure browsers and virtual private networks (VPNs).
Based on Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio Free Asia (FRA), was established in the 1990’s, with the aim of promoting democratic values and human rights, and diminishing the Communist Party control of China. RFA is funded by a grant from the U.S. Agency for Global Media (formerly the "Broadcasting Board of Governors"), an independent agency of the United States government. In 2017, RFA and other networks, such as Voice of America, were put under the newly created U.S. Agency for Global Media, an independent federal agency. RFA is the only station outside of China that broadcasts in the Uygur-language. As a result, Radio Free Asia has been recognized for playing a vital role in exposing Xinjiang re-education camps. The New York Times considers RFA to be one of the few reliable sources of information about Xinjiang.
RFA broadcasts news and relevant information to the nations of China, Tibet, North Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, and Burma.
RFA adheres to the highest journalistic standards of objectivity, accuracy, and fairness, as defined in the code of ethics for its reporters and editors. In countries and regions with little or no access to accurate and timely journalism, as well as alternative opinions and perspectives, RFA’s nine language services fill a crucial gap. RFA aims to retain the greatest confidence among its audiences and to serve as a model on which others may shape their own emerging journalistic traditions.
RFA is a private, nonprofit corporation, funded by the U.S. Congress through the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), which is an independent federal government agency that oversees all U.S. civilian international media. In addition to providing oversight for RFA's radio broadcasts and the like, the USAGM works with RFA to ensure the professional independence and integrity of its journalism.
"Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive, and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers." — Article 19, The Universal Declaration of Human Rights

<h3><strong>Russian Cartoons & Posters: From Red Tape to Red Square (G-1)</strong></h3>
Description
An account of the resource
<p>This collection consists of items from the art exhibit “Bureaucracy in Russian Art: Posters and Political Cartoons" (2010), produced by Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, School of Public Affairs and Administration, in collaboration with the American University of Armenia and the Department of Sociology, St. Petersburg University, Russia. The collection features works that satirize bureaucracy.</p>
<p>Russian artists, like their American counterparts, have been calling our attention to conflicts between efficiency and ethics in organizational life, including ethical dilemmas faced by public servants; the unintended consequences for employees and clients of large bureaucratic organizational structures; and ways in which individuals are frustrated by, and cope with, large systems.</p>
<p>The exhibits in this gallery demonstrate the perception of the Russian artists that bureaucracy is dysfunctional, enervating, and inefficient, the antithesis of creativity, and a cancer in the social fabric. Their messages are, perhaps necessarily, negative. Their suggested solutions are seemingly superficial: use common sense, untangled red tape, treat people as human beings, and do not forget the organization’s objectives.</p>
<p>The display comprises primarily political cartoons and posters. Over a period of many decades political cartoons were disseminated in <strong><em>Krokodil </em></strong><em>(crocodile)</em>, a satirical magazine published in the former Soviet Union, as well as in other similar magazines. During the decades of the 1960s, 1970s and early in the 1980s a group of artists in Leningrad (St. Petersburg) known as the “Fighting Pencil,” produced anti-bureaucratic posters aimed to “open the boils on the body of the Soviet society.”</p>
<p>With the support of local officials, the anti-bureaucratic material was widely available throughout the Soviet Union and served to contend that bureaucracy was an obstacle to the success of Glasnost (openness) and Perestroika (the political and economic system), and warned that political and bureaucratic changes must go hand-in-hand.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
For the Soviet Union, the roots of technological stagnation were in the monopoly of the state on the means of production that obliterated the incentives to upgrade technologically and to increase productivity. As a result, innovation and competition were stifled (Chubarov, 2001, 79).
