Even mill, however, allowed for some limits. where we should place
In On Liberty, Mill presents one of the most famous arguments in defense of free speech.
Even Mill, however, allowed for some limits. Where we should place limits on free speech is as important a question today as it was then.
For this paper, please read Andrew Marantz’s piece in The New Yorker on right-wing speakers on university campuses and listen to the debate between Nadine Strossen and Thane Rosenbaum (both are posted in the Mill module).
In your response paper, please focus on the following questions:
What are the arguments provided on both sides of the argument about limits to free speech as reported by Marantz and as exhibited in the podcast debate? How would Mill decide in this debate, and which argument(s) do you find most convincing and why?
