Download or read book Commercial Speech as Free Expression written by Martin H. Redish and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-10 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, commercial speech was summarily excluded from First Amendment protection, without reason or logic. Starting in the mid-1970s, the Supreme Court began to extend protection but it remained strictly limited. In recent years, that protection has expanded, but both Court and scholars have refused to consider treating commercial speech as the First Amendment equivalent of traditionally protected expressive categories such as political speech or literature. Commercial Speech as Free Expression stands as the boldest statement yet for extending full First Amendment protection to commercial speech by proposing a new, four-part synthesis of different perspectives on the manner in which free expression fosters and protects expressive values. This book explains the complexities and subtleties of how the equivalency principle would function in real-life situations. The key is to recognize that as a matter of First Amendment value, commercial speech deserves treatment equivalent to that received by traditionally protected speech.
Download or read book Corporate and Commercial Free Speech written by Edwin P. Rome and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1985-11-14 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This valuable book by Rome and Roberts, attorneys and participants in several Supreme Court cases involving commerical and corporate free speech, stands alone as a monographic treatment addressing the topic of the First Amendment and corporate and commercial free speech...It is a thorough, careful treatment of an area of growing importance. One would have to turn to the extensive law review literature on this topic for comparable, if partial, treatment...The book is detailed and sophisticated enough to be of use to legal counsels and academics, but it could be read with profit by upper-division and graduate students.

Download or read book Selling Words written by R. George Wright and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1997-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wright (law, Samford U.) attacks the common American notion that the spread of commercialization is a natural manifestation of freedom and the pursuit of well-being. Topics include the constitutional arguments related to commercial free speech law, the influence of so-called controversial ads, the commercialization of the Internet, and the impact of advertising on various demographic groups. Wright concludes that commercial speech is overprotected, and that only in the case of the poor are commercial getting and spending correlated with well-being.

Download or read book Freedom of Speech written by Larry. J Alexander and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2000. This text presents a two-volume collection of theoretical articles on the topic of freedom of speech. The articles have all been written since the early 1970s. The first volume begins with an encyclopaedia entry, functioning as an overview of the topic, and further articles deal with justificatory theories of freedom of speech, the scope of the First Amendment, the value of free speech, communication control in law and society, and what kinds of acts raise freedom of speech concerns. The second volume turns to doctrinal theories, examining insults, incitements and governmental subsidies. Areas addressed include distinctions between content regulations, Robert Post's concepts of the public forum and public discourse and their bearing on free speech doctrine, and the significant arena for free speech controversies in the future.
Download or read book Freedom of Speech Volume 21 Part 2 written by Ellen Frankel Paul and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-07-05 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether free speech is defended as a fundamental right that inheres in each individual, or as a guarantee that all of society's members will have a voice in democratic decision-making, the central role of expressive freedom in liberating the human spirit is undeniable. Freedom of expression will, as the essays in this volume illuminate, encounter new and continuing controversies in the twenty-first century. Advances in digital technology raise pressing questions regarding freedom of speech and, with it, intellectual property and privacy rights. Campaign finance reform limits the formerly sacrosanct category of 'political speech'. Expressive liberties may face their greatest challenge from government efforts to thwart terrorism. The twelve legal scholars and philosophers whose work appears in this volume examine the history of free speech doctrine, its relevance to other social and personal values, and the radical critiques it has withstood in recent years.

Download or read book Brandishing the First Amendment written by Tamara Piety and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2012-02-08 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, corporations and other commercial entities have used strategic litigation to win more expansive First Amendment protections for commercial speech—from the regulation of advertising to the role corporate interests play in the political process, most recently debated in the Supreme Court case of Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. Tamara R. Piety, a nationally known critic of commercial and corporate speech, argues that such an expansion of First Amendment speech rights imperils public health, safety, and welfare; the reliability of commercial and consumer information; the stability of financial markets; and the global environment. Beginning with an evaluation of commonly evoked philosophical justifications for freedom of expression, Piety determines that, while these are appropriate for the protection of an individual’s rights, they should not be applied too literally to commercial expression because the corporate person is not the moral equivalent of the human person. She then gathers evidence from public relations and marketing, behavioral economics, psychology, and cognitive studies to show how overly permissive extensions of First Amendment protections to commercial expression limit governmental power to address some of the major social, economic, and environmental challenges of our time. “The timeliness of the topic and the provision of original positions are sure to make the book a valuable contribution that should draw much attention.” —Kevin W. Saunders, Michigan State University

Download or read book Free Speech in the New Media written by Thomas Gibbons and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with questions of political and constitutional principle and theory that affect the law and regulation of content in new media that are based on digital technology. In the light of convergence between different forms of communication, it examines whether the justifications for government intervention in traditional analogue broadcasting and programme delivery continue to be persuasive. The essays examine in general whether new approaches to freedom of expression are required in the digital era and whether there is a continued role for public service broadcasting or its equivalent. They also explore content standards in more detail, discussing arguments for and against regulation in the areas of beliefs, indecency and advertising and whether there is a case for the European Union's measures to secure "Television without Frontiers".
Download or read book Protecting the right to freedom of expression under the European Convention on Human Rights written by Bychawska-Siniarska, Dominika and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Convention on Human Rights – Article 10 – Freedom of expression 1. Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises. 2. The exercise of these freedoms, since it carries with it duties and responsibilities, may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary. In the context of an effective democracy and respect for human rights mentioned in the Preamble to the European Convention on Human Rights, freedom of expression is not only important in its own right, but it also plays a central part in the protection of other rights under the Convention. Without a broad guarantee of the right to freedom of expression protected by independent and impartial courts, there is no free country, there is no democracy. This general proposition is undeniable. This handbook is a practical tool for legal professionals from Council of Europe member states who wish to strengthen their skills in applying the European Convention on Human Rights and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in their daily work.
