Free expression faces mounting threats in the digital age. The proliferation of social media platforms and the spread of fake news, misinformation, and disinformation have prompted governments to propose new regulations that pose significant challenges to the fundamental right to free speech. Hate speech, far-right populism, campus speech debates, and censorship have become prominent issues in Canada and around the world.
Dilemmas of Free Expression explores innovative approaches to addressing complex moral, policy, and philosophical dilemmas that arise in the context of free expression. The essays in this volume provide timely analyses of the legal, policy, and philosophical challenges, as well as the social repercussions, to our understanding of expressive freedom in relation to government obligations and public discourse.
Free expression is a multifaceted, intricate, values-driven concept that plays a vital role in the functioning of society. Dilemmas of Free Expression addresses the challenges of limiting free expression across various issues by drawing upon the expertise of leading and emerging voices from diverse disciplines, including political science, law, philosophy, and Indigenous studies.
The book offers valuable insights into the complexities of regulating free expression in a digital age, while also advocating for the preservation of the essential values that underpin it. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the challenges and opportunities of free expression in today's world.
