2015 Knowledge Commons Summit Hosted by IRSC Center for Media and Journalism Studies Small Business Development Center Center for Civic Engagement Wednesday, October 14 - Friday, October 16 THE KNOWLEDGE COMMONS SUMMIT AT INDIAN RIVER STATE COLLEGE The Knowledge Commons: The idea of the Knowledge Commons is linked to some straightforward and well-recognized principles related to the health of both communities and democracy. For a community to be anything more than a disparate collection of individuals, there must be a shared set of values, truths, and interests that unites it. These elements are reflected in a sense of common identity, and they are supported by and reflected in the stories that bind people together – stories of origins, of the community’s place and importance in history, and so on. Without this foundation, communities devolve into conflicts of competing interests and ideologies, a condition that makes representative government deeply problematic. This common ground is what is meant by the term “Knowledge Commons.” The Tragedy of the Knowledge Commons: As a result of the rise of consumerism, the emergence of mass media, and the ubiquity of the Internet, the Knowledge Commons is becoming increasingly fragmented and the conditions for healthy communities are being eroded. The “tragic” element of this decline stems from the fact that the Knowledge Commons supports the very technological and social progress that could lead to its eventual decline. Yet unlike the traditional sense of the ‘tragic,’ this decline is not inevitable: Education is the key, but a form of education that extends the classroom to the public sphere and makes civic engagement and social responsibility the focus of academic life. The Knowledge Commons Summit at Indian River State College This Summit explores the connection between higher education and the health of local, regional, and global communities. Participants will complete the program with the practical strategies and intellectual resources necessary to change the academic culture of today’s colleges and universities to support a more civically-oriented curriculum. -1- 2015 IRSC KNOWLEDGE COMMONS SUMMIT Meet Our Keynote Presenter Our Stake in the News Media: Journalistic Values that Support Healthy Democracy Here and Abroad John Dinges Godfrey Lowell Cabor Professor of Journalism Emeritus, Columbia University John Dinges, the Godfrey Lowell Cabot Professor of Journalism Emeritus at Columbia University, is an author and former correspondent in Latin America.

Barr-Melej This dissertation examines the struggle between Chile’s opposition press and the dictatorial regime of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte (1973-1990). It argues that due to Chile’s tradition of a pluralistic press and other factors, and in bids to strengthen the regime’s legitimacy, Pinochet and his top officials periodically demonstrated considerable flexibility in terms of the opposition media’s ability to publish and distribute its products. However, the regime, when sensing that its grip on power was slipping, reverted to repressive measures in its dealings with opposition-media outlets. Meanwhile, opposition journalists challenged the very legitimacy Pinochet sought and further widened the scope of acceptable opposition under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, such resistance contributed to Pinochet’s defeat in the 1988 plebiscite, initiating the return of democracy.

Freaney, Jr. Professor of History at Temple University, has established himself as a preeminent scholar of inter-American relations. He has written or edited eleven books in the field. His most notable achievement has been his award- winning study, The Invaded: How Latin Americans and their Allies Fought and Ended U.S. Occupations (2014).[1] McPherson, who is fluent in Spanish and French, conducted multi-archival research in the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States and read a variety of Latin American newspapers, including those from Haiti. His forthcoming book is Ghosts of Sheridan Circle: How a Washington Assassination Brought Pinochet’s Terror State to Justice, which will be published by the University of North Carolina Press. The article under review here explores themes that are fully developed in the book. As in McPherson’s previous articles and books, this article demonstrates the author’s command of the published scholarly literature and his willingness to conduct multi-archival research.

Kraft-Davis Florida State University, U.S.A. E-mail: [email protected] Accepted 14 April, 2011 The not so recent distribution of the Abu Ghraib photos throughout the United States and the world brought forth the detection of a practice that is commonly used by the U.S. and its “satellite states.” For the mainstream U.S. American public, it was a shocking and horrifying discovery. For others, such as Carlos Mauricio who “had flashbacks when he saw the guy with the hood (at Abu Ghraib),” the photos were a terrible reminder of a “counter terrorism” practice that is implemented to subdue “communist/terrorist insurgents.” Following the publication of the Abu Ghraib photos, U.S. representatives, with the help of the media, “manufactured consent” by dismissing the photos as “not representing America” and blaming the atrocious acts committed within the photos on a “few bad apples”.` There are those who were not fooled, as well as others who would like to know how we, as a society, can end this dreadful practice. This piece will expose some ideas that may, in fact, contribute to ending the practice of torture by the United States. It will analyze and critique institutions and ideologies, such as racism and capitalism that are so fundamental to the U.S.
