Fara Dabhoiwala: What Is Free Speech?, Gebunden

Klappentext

Fara Dabhoiwala argues that free speech, though a central democratic value, owes its origin and evolution less to high-minded ideals than to venal interests. Shaped by greed, technological change, and the insoluble challenges of slander and falsehood, free speech is inherently contradictory-both a basis of liberty and a weapon of the powerful.
