statement of problem, two

I am studying banned, censored, prohibited, proscribed, suppressed, and destroyed works of print, television, film, music, visual art, and digital media. I wish to describe the conditions under which censorship is possible. This would include both internal conditions such as sexual, violent, political, drug-related, blasphemous, or otherwise profane content. It would also include external conditions such as institutional, political, religious, sociocultural, psychological, and economic factors. To manage this descriptive problem, I would divide the research into three broad areas of discussion: books and printed media; visual and aural media; digital media. Finally, I plan to explore the uses and effects of censored media, as objects in the material world.
