Robert Harley and the Press

Auteur: Downie, J. A.
Editeur: Cambridge University Press
In 1695, with the expiry of the licensing act, state censorship of the press ceased. This study seeks to explain why press regulations were not reimposed to curb the invective of the party writers; and concludes that the principal reason was the development of government propaganda and counter-propaganda agencies under the direction of Robert Harley.
