Unfortunately, many of these works are not widely disseminated, marginalizing the influence of these alternative voices. This monograph examines the barriers to the broad dissemination of such works, with a focus on Arabic literature, and suggests ways to overcome these barriers. 606 $aCensorship$zArab countries 606 $aArabic literature$xCensorship 606 $aBook industries and trade$zArab countries 606 $aPublishers and publishing$zArab countries 606 $aBooks and reading$zArab countries 615 0$aCensorship 615 0$aArabic literature$xCensorship. 615 0$aBook industries and trade 615 0$aPublishers and publishing 615 0$aBooks and reading 676 $a363.310917/4927 701 $aSchwartz$b Lowell$0910134 712 02$aNational Defense Research Institute (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910219984003321 996 $aBarriers to the broad dissemination of creative works in the Arab world$92874369 997 $aUNINA
