Freedom of speech and expression : its history, its value, its good use, and its misuse / Richard Sorabji. by Sorabji, Richard. author. New York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2021] Series:  Rutgers lectures in philosophy. Description:  xxii, 189 pages ; 19 cm. Contents:  Introduction -- The benefits seen in free speech and its gradual extension from some to all : an intercultural history -- The benefits of free speech and expression : productive versus counter-productive speech, and voluntary boundaries -- Free speech on social media : how to protect our freedoms from those social media that are funded by trade in our personal data. Summary:  "This book on freedom of speech and expression starts (Chapter 1) with an inter-cultural history of this valued right through the ages and then recalls (Chapter 2) the benefits for which we rightly value it. But what about speech that frustrates these benefits? Supporters of the benefits of free speech have reason to exercise voluntary self-restraint on speech which frustrates the benefits. They should also cultivate a second remedy: the art, illustrated in chapter 1, and called by Gandhi the art of 'opening ears', by other kinds of speech and conduct. Such voluntary methods are to be preferred to legal constraints. But (chapter 3) legal constraint is sometimes necessary. In the 21st century, social media funding based on manipulation of personal speech data requires skilful legislation and enforcement in favour of social media that protect our freedoms"---Provided by publisher.
