Product Description


  • Premium Quality: Is Free Speech Under Threat? is a 256-page paperback that engages rigorously with one of the most pressing debates in contemporary political and social discourse.

  • Product Design: The book presents a nuanced argument that alongside the necessary and long-overdue elevation of minority voices, there has arisen an uncompromising intolerance - most notably on university campuses and online - that wrongly equates a wide range of offensive speech with violence and seeks to shut it down.

  • User Experience: Suzanne Nossel, CEO of PEN America, the leading free expression organisation, argues that this dynamic has led to an escalating free speech arms race from which everyone loses, offering readers a clear framework for understanding the tensions at play.

  • About the Author: Charlotte Lydia Riley is a historian of twentieth-century Britain at the University of Southampton, specialising in questions about empire, politics, culture, and identity, and her writing has appeared in the Guardian, New Statesman, Financial Times, Washington Post, and History Today.

  • Versatile Occasion: Well suited for general readers, college students, competitive exam aspirants, and anyone with an interest in social sciences, free expression, and contemporary political thought.

  • Ideal For: An essential title for library and book collection buyers, gift purposes, and readers engaged with questions of civil liberties and public debate.
