Linda Polman

"Censorship has many sides. One is the ability to see and write about, and the other
side is the willingness of people to listen. Over the last years, there has been an
unwillingness to listen and to understand the other. It’s another paradox of
globalisation that we think we see the whole world, but actually we listen to a tribal
message, a message from home."Isabel Hilton (jury member 2003, 2004, 2005 & 2006)
