Minorities, Free Speech and the Internet explores the regulation of
free speech online and offline. Views are divided as to how much
regulation of the Internet is appropriate. Some argue that it
should be an unregulated space for free content. On the other hand,
in many democracies online hate speech, harassment and xenophobia
are prohibited and punished. This book provides a forum for leading
international scholars to address domestic and comparative
dimensions of this complex legal conundrum. Firstly, the authors
analyse the free speech and internet regulations in different legal
cultures, including the USA, Europe, China and Russia. Secondly,
they study fake news, extreme right speech and the implications of
hate speech on pluralistic society. Thirdly, they examine different
case law addressing minority sensibilities, historical
discriminations, offensive propaganda and other issues particularly
concerning minorities and free speech. This book will be of
interest to students and scholars interested in the topics of hate
speech and minorities, democracy, misinformation and debates about
the Internet, as well as political science researchers.
