Abstract

Analyzes the expansion of freedom of information laws in various countries, & assesses their effectiveness in government accountability to its citizenry. Increased access to public documents results in enhanced possibilities for citizens; however, the right to obtain government information is limited by privacy rights & state interests. The information laws across countries -- including the US, France, & Italy -- reveal changes in the relationship between citizens & governments. Information laws are considered important for government accountability, & their capacity for enhanced citizen participation is contemplated. 11 Tables, 3 Figures. L. Collins Leigh
