A propos de cet article

Sterling condition softcover copy, with unfurled tips, tight binding, and clean internals, showing only very slight shelf- and edge-wear to the glossy pictorial card-stock wraps. From the publisher's blurb, "Freedom of expression is one of the cornerstones of all democratic systems. Without it, ideas about how to protect the common good in our societies would be impoverished. A marketplace of ideas is essential for democracy to thrive. It is for this reason that the European Court of Human Rights attaches such importance to political discourse, as well as to speech and other forms of expression that may shock and offend. Yet, such freedom may clash with other rights, such as the right to privacy or the right to a good reputation. It may even conflict with the need to protect public order or morals. Societies require pluralism if they are to grow, yet democracy also seeks to limit extreme forms of speech that preach hate and advocate violence. Are such restrictions on free speech legitimate? By what criteria are we to judge their necessity? We rely on journalists to report accurately the controversies of the day and protect their right not to reveal sources. They also enjoy a broad right of fair comment. We expect them to be responsible in their factual reporting, to check their sources, and to have regard of the need to observe some degree of restraint when reporting or commenting on matters that affect the rights of others. However, is it legitimate to interfere with reporting that is in the public interest? How can the law promote responsible journalism? This collection of essays on freedom of expression contains contributions by distinguished judges and lawyers from various backgrounds that explore these themes with a critical eye. The festschrift honors Sir Nicolas Bratza, President of the European Court of Human Rights, for his outstanding contributions, as a jurist and leading judicial figure, to the protection of human rights in Europe." Contributions by Josep Casadevall, Egbert Myjer, Michael O'Boyle, Anna Austin and several others. viii, 1-566 pp. and with a fine, full-color photograph of the object of this festschrift, Nicolas Bratza, at frontis, and several more full-color photographs at book's rear.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards.

Description de la boutique

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does “structure” (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the “agency” of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn’t going to solve the debate, but we’ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses—we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana. Structure, Verses, Agency Books…
