This volume, an updated collection of essays presented by leading
scholars at a Hofstra University conference on group defamation,
provides a cross-disciplinary examination of hate speech. Beginning
with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in R.A.V. v. St. Paul,
the volume analyzes the problem from historical, anthropological,
comparative-legal, and American constitutional law perspectives.
Among the topics examined are the role of hate speech in the
persecutions of Jews and Asians during World War II, in the
subordination of Blacks, Native Americans, and women, and the pros
and cons of the legal controls on hate speech adopted in such
countries as Australia, Canada, and Israel. The section on American
constitutional law features several proposed statutes outlawing
hate speech, along with model court opinions supporting and
attacking their constitutionality. The volume will be of great
interest to scholars and students in the areas of intergroup
relations and constitutional law as well as policy makers.
