In December 2012, the story of a horrific gang rape in India's capital New Delhi caught global attention. More than two years on, India and the issue of rape are back in the headlines – a direct result of the government's ban on a BBC documentary called India's Daughter. インドの娘のドキュメント、政府の放映禁止への抗議のデモ！

Directed by British filmmaker Leslee Udwin, the documentary retells the story of the gang rape and features interviews with one of the rapists and his lawyers. The film was meant to air in India on the NDTV network on March 8, 2015 - International Women's Day. The government banned the broadcast, declaring it an insult to victim of the rape and defamatory to India's public image. 3月8日の世界女性の日に放映予定がインド政府中枢の思惑により禁止されたドキュメントである。ツイターで中身が少し紹介されていたが、レイプ犯の4人が死刑判決を受けたことや(最高裁はまだ最終決断に至っていない）、その1人が夜中の9時に街を徘徊する医学部生の女性にも落度があった、との発言があるようだ。インドの世界へのイメージの歪みをおもんばかるインド政府には慰安婦問題でゆれる日本政府がまた重なってくる。セクシュアリティの歴史を現在を構造として捉える必要があるのだろう。問題の根は深い。ジェンダー＆セクシュアリティーの問題は社会の在り様総体とつながっているゆえに、繊細で過敏な問題。女性＝性的他者（Ｏｂｊｅｃｔ）、階級（層）制の壁、「宗教、政治、二重規範の知のパワー構造」など、複雑な様相がそこにある。しかし放映禁止はどうなのだろう。表現の自由と討論する（話し合う自由）空間の抑圧になるのではないだろうか？

convict(有罪判決を受けた人）の発言が男性優位社会の長い歴史を物語っているようだ。静かにレイプされるべきだった。夜中の9時に街をうろつく女性はレイプされていいの発言にとれる。そして男性より女性がレイプに関しては悪い（つまり挑発しているからということか？）と話している。彼の認識は多くのインドの男性がもっているのかもしれない？？

In our lead story this week, we analyse the debate that has exploded over this film in India, the government's censorship and the painful discussion about rape in India. Speaking to us for this report are Leslee Udwin director of India's Daughter; Professor of Social Science, Shiv Visvanathan; co-founder of the website Newslaundry, Abhinandan Sekhri; and from the All India's Progressive Women's Association, Kavita Krishnan.

Other media stories on our radar this week: In Greece the recently elected Syriza coalition government drafted a proposal to the parliament that could see the country's state broadcaster ERT back on the air. Authorities in Ethiopia have been accused of spying on journalists working for ESAT, an independent channel operating offshore. And the collaboration of international journalists that broke the HSBC tax avoidance story could end up claiming casualties in the British media establishment.

BBC Storyville: India's Daughter以下はウィキピーディアからです。

A BBC documentary titled 'India's Daughter' based on the attack and including interviews with one of the men convicted of the crime, was broadcast in the UK on 4 March 2015.[14] It is currently banned from screening in India.[189] The release of the film has generated intense debate in India and beyond. [190][191]

The film's director and producer Leslee Udwin said that it was the courage and bravery shown by the unprecedented numbers of men and women that protested the rape and murder that inspired her to make the film. Speaking in an interview, Udwin said:

Courageous and impassioned ordinary men and women of India braved the December freeze to protest in unprecedented numbers, withstanding an onslaught of teargas shells, lathi charges [baton charges] and water canons, to make their cry of ‘enough is enough’ heard. In this regard, India led the world by example. In my lifetime, I can’t recall any other country standing up with such commitment and determination for women’s rights.[192](監督の発言です。こんなに女性の権利のために立ちあがった国は他にない。）

Speaking of the film, the victim's father, Badrinath Singh, said that the film "holds up a mirror to society" and that the showing of the film is important "so that the struggle that my daughter was part of continues." Singh said that since the death of their daughter "every girl on the street is like a daughter" to him and his wife and that people need to understand that sons need to be taught to respect women. Speaking on 5 March, Singh said:

 

 

インドのバスレイプで英語の≪ウィキピーディア≫は詳細を伝えていますね。新たな情報も追記されています。

 

犠牲になった女子学生の家族はそのドキュメントを評価していますね。死してなお彼女が多くのインドの女性たちに勇気を与え、状況を変革することになったとー。彼女は悪魔たちと闘ったー。フィルムは社会の鏡の役割をしていると語っている。強いご両親ですね。どの少女も自分の娘のように見えるともー。

My wife and I brought up our children with the sole intention of making them good citizens. I can proudly say that we have achieved that. Our daughter has shown society its true face. She has changed the lives of many young girls. She remains an inspiration even after her death. She fought back those devils. We are proud of our daughter.[193]

 

Kremlin's troll army
　ここからはまた別の記事ですね。クレムリン（ロシア）とクリミア、ウクライナ問題です。
In our feature, Nic Muirhead reports on the online offensive being conducted at the Kremlin's behest.

In comments sections of news websites inside and outside Russia, paid online trolls are skewing the debate, overwhelming the discussion so much that some outlets – like The Moscow Times – have shut down their comments sections.

Are these online activists in the pay of the Russian government or are followers of Russian news just incredibly vocal online? We speak to Tanya Lokot, editor of RuNet Echo; from Dozhd TV editor-in-chief Ilya Klishin; former Kremlin advisor Alexander Nekrassov; and Floriana Fossato, an Internet expert.

Sticking with the theme of information wars, we end this week's show with a very different approach to the divide from university students in Russia and Ukraine. Across video sharing sites, students on both sides are speaking to each other – busting myths, representing their perspectives and trying to build an understanding by circumventing the rhetoric of politicians and the narratives of traditional media. We have selected two videos and edited them together to give you a sense of the discussion online.
