Book of the week

What is free speech? : the history of a dangerous idea

book cover

"Faramerz 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"
