This volume examines the practical and theoretical justification for freedom of information laws, particularly the United States Federal Freedom of Information Act, which gives any person access to documents and records of federal agencies. In this regard, the volume also considers objections to these laws and explores topics raised by the adoption of freedom of information principles outside the United States.

Contents:
The reform of the American administrative process - the contemporary debate, Thomas Sargentich; how the Electronic Freedom of Information Act amendments of 1996 update public access for the information age, Michael Tankersley; expanding the purpose of federal records access - new private entitlement or new threat to privacy?, James T. O'Reilly; the freedom of information has no clothes, Antonin Scalia; a theory of law and government - copyright, spleens, blackmail and insider trading, James Boyle; the trade secret status of health and safety testing information - reforming agency disclosure policies, Thomas O'McGarity and Sideny A. Shapiro; the whistleblower protection act of 1989 - foundation for the modern law of employment dissent, Thomas Devine; freedom of information - will Blair be able to break the walls of secrecy in Britain?, Debra L. Silverman.
