In exploring a series of problems associated with privacy and the
First Amendment, Bloustein defines individual and group privacy,
distinguishing them from each other and related concepts. He also
identifies the public interest in individual privacy as individual
integrity or liberty, and that of group privacy as the integrity of
social structure. The legal protection afforded each of these forms
of privacy is illustrated at length, as is the clash between them
and the constitutional guarantees of the First Amendment and the
citizen's general right to know. In his final essay, Bloustein
insists that the concept of group privacy is essential to a
properly functioning social structure, and warns that it would be
disastrous if this principle were neglected as part of an
overreaction to the misuse of group confidences that characterized
the Nixon era.
