This ambitious, interdisciplinary collection responds to present
intellectual debates concerning the value and limits of privacy.
Ever since the beginning of modernity, the line of demarcation
between private and public spaces, and the distinction between
them, have continually been challenged and redrawn. Such
developments as new technologies that introduce previously
unforeseen possibilities for infringement upon privacy and the
modern spectacles of television talk shows and "reality-TV" give
added urgency to the discussion on privacy. This collection
examines the fundamental issues structuring that debate. Bringing
together for the first time leading contributors to the recent
debates on privacy from both Europe and the United States, this
collection affirms that privacy, in all its dimensions, remains a
central value of liberal democracies. Its essays expose the complex
ways in which privacy is essentially and intimately intertwined
with our ideas of freedom, identity, and "the good life."
