Title | Content-Based Restrictions on Freedom of Expression: Should Hate Speech be Banned? |
Summary | The regulation of freedom of expression, and specifically hate speech, is a controversial topic in both Europe and the United States. The European Court of Human Rights and the United States Supreme Court use very different approaches when deciding issues of speech regulation. This thesis presents a theoretical argument for why hate speech should be banned, even though there are significant societal costs involved. |
