Klappentext zu „Free Speech “
Freedom of speech is never very far away from political controversy. In recent years, the rise of populism, the 'cancel culture' phenomenon, and online hate attacks are among the developments that have kept it at the forefront of both public and academic discussion.In this new introduction to the subject, Matteo Bonotti and Jonathan Seglow offer an accessible analysis of debates around freedom of speech. They introduce and critically examine three major philosophical arguments for freedom of speech that are based on the values of truth, autonomy, and democracy. They apply these arguments to issues including hate speech, offensive speech, and pornography, and also tackle pressing current issues such as 'fake news' and public shaming.
This book will be essential for anyone wishing to understand the contemporary significance and philosophical roots of free speech, and how it relates to debates about democracy, feminism and multiculturalism.

Pressezitat
'Where libertarians see restrictions on politically pernicious speech as a betrayal of liberalism, Bonotti and Seglow demonstrate - clearly, methodically, fair-mindedly - how such restrictions can actually be motivated by a liberal political morality.'Robert Simpson, University College, London
'Free Speech applies the traditional justifications for free speech to hate speech, Holocaust denial, offensive speech, and pornography. It does not come down on one side or the other on these issues, [but] it does offer a framework for constructively thinking through them.'
Mary Kate McGowan, Wellesley College
