       2018., Greenhaven Pub. Call No: 364.2 TRI   Edition: 1st ed.    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Summary Note: "The relative anonymity the Internet provides allows us to assert our knowledge like a professor, show off our seemingly perfect lives, and judge like we're presiding over a court of law. The problem with this relatively new phenomenon is that we often make snap judgments about other people's actions or statements without knowing all of the facts, and without giving others the benefit of the doubt. This volume dives deep into the realities of the Internet age: Do we become different people when we're on the Internet? What responsibility do we have in our treatment of others in this new society? Is it our place to be virtual judge and jury?"--From the publisher's web site.

       [2018], Juvenile, Greenhaven Publishing Call No: 320.918 HUR   Edition: First edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Series Title: Opposing viewpointsSummary Note: "America's founding principles have long been held up as model of success to the rest of the world. Somewhat suddenly however, these principals don't seem as solid as they once did. Globalization has created economic growth, but has also widened the gap between rich and poor. A rising conflict between multiculturalism and nationalism has fragmented western populations and caused a surge of nativism. Fake news and filters undermine free speech and a free press. Political parties have fragmented, and election tampering is a valid concern. The viewpoints in this resource address the current state of western democracy." -- from Amazon.com.
