CHAPTER ONE
1.0              Introduction

Access to information is essential to the health of democracy for at least two reasons.

In post-conflict or ethnically homogenous societies such a conflictual, tension-ridden relationship may not be appropriate, but the role of the press to disseminate information as a way of mediating between the state and all facets of civil society remains critical.
