It traces how free speech has been mobilized in far-right politics, the recycling of 'race realism and other discredited forms of knowledge, and the politics of immigration and integration, revealing much about the ongoing life of race and racism in contemporary society. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 144 pages\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 July 2020\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe issue of free speech is consistently in the news and is frequently described as being in crisis. Gavan Titley begins his examination by noting that these discussions frequently center on what can and cannot be said about race, which leads him to question why racism has become such a central issue in intense debates about the status and scope of freedom of speech.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book \"Is Free Speech Racist?\" moves beyond the constant debates about the boundaries of speech and instead focuses on how the principle of free speech is applied in today's multicultural and highly mediated societies. This involves exploring how free speech has been used in far-right politics, the recycling of discredited forms of knowledge, and the politics of immigration and integration. In contexts where there is intense political contention and public confusion about what constitutes racism and who has the authority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book argues that free speech has been adopted as a primary tool for amplifying and revitalizing racist ideas and racializing claims. It reveals much about the ongoing presence of race and racism in contemporary society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 176g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 124 x 190 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781509536160                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gavan Titley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44106099720442,"sku":"9781509536160","price":8.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3dd6883b5029230eb2ee004743eb88aa.jpg?v=1624583728","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/is-free-speech-racist","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
