Zusammenfassung
How important is free speech? Should it be defended at any cost? Or should we set limits on what can and cannot be said? This Very Short Introduction offers a lively and thought-provoking guide to these questions, exploring both the traditional philosophical arguments as well as the practical issues and controversies facing society today. Crisp, clear and astute, this is a thought-provoking introduction to one of the most hotly contested questions of our time.
