Book Description

From one of the country's most esteemed experts on the First Amendment and the author of the classic Gideon's Trumpet, an eloquent essay on the importance of freedom of expression.

More than any other people on earth, Americans are free to say and write what they think. The media can air the secrets of the White House, the boardroom, or the bedroom with little fear of punishment or penalty. The reason for this extraordinary freedom is not a superior culture of tolerance, but just fourteen words in our most fundamental legal document: the free expression clauses of the First Amendment to the Constitution.

In Lewis's telling, the story of how the right of free expression evolved along with our nation makes a compelling case for the adaptability of our constitution. Although Americans have gleefully and sometimes outrageously exercised their right to free speech since before the nation's founding, the Supreme Court did not begin to recognize this right until 1919. Freedom of speech and the press as we know it today is surprisingly recent. Anthony Lewis tells us how these rights were created, revealing a story of hard choices, heroic (and some less heroic) judges, and fascinating and eccentric defendants who forced the legal system to come face-to-face with one of America's great founding ideas.

这本书是国庆放假期间三天读完的。上一本书是“批评官员的尺度”,基于了解美国宪法第一修正案的想法,继续读了这本书,同一个作者所著。 看完之后的几点感受: 1、言论自由需要一个有力的制度作保障,司法是其中最重要的一个环节,美国从建国以来设计的三权分立制度和最高法院...

司法能动性( Judicial Activism,又译司法能动主义、司法积极主义),指的是对美国司法制度中审判行为的一种见解。 司法能动性的基本宗旨是,法官应该审判案件而不是回避案件,并且要广泛的运用他们的权力,尤其是通过扩大平等和个人自由的手段去促进公平——即保护人的尊严。...

有些时候,我喜欢一个人呆着,比如看书。看书于我而言是一个非常私密的时刻,只有在一个人的时候,才能放开心灵,遨游于文字的世界中,尽情体味痛苦与欢乐,怀想与追思,在宇宙所有的宏阔与细微处漫步。 最近一段时间,连续看了三本书,作者都是安东尼刘易斯,他是《纽约时报》...

几年前,查理周刊事件发生,丑化穆罕穆德的漫画被蒙上恐怖主义带来的血光,而事后西方主流话语一致为言论自由站台的举动,促成我对西方言论自由精神态度之转向。那时的我,其实是不解的,只单纯觉得这种态度势必将加剧文明的仇恨,而这种危险将使得言论自由的所谓世界性价值变...

非常好的简史,被美国诗意的法庭意见惊呆了”It is an experiment, as all life is an experiment...””One man’s vulgarity is another’s lyric.”

评分

庆幸的是美国也曾经像我们一样不清醒;悲哀的是我们不仅没有也拒绝学习人家的经验教训。算是我的言论自由/自由主义/宪政的启蒙书目之一。

“验证真理的最好方法是放到公共舆论场检验”“警惕假借爱国、国家安全名义的罪恶”“国旗之所以值得尊敬是因为它象征自由,包括焚烧它的自由”,再过五十年也写不出这样的法庭意见书

第一修正案簡史,liberty lies in people' heart; if it dies there, no constitution,no law, no court can save it.
